About
JASA has been providing affordable housing to seniors for the last 50 years. As the need for senior housing grows, JASA is taking on new initiatives to increase housing accessibility and offer supportive services for formerly homeless seniors, utilizing two funding streams: New York City’s Human Resources Administration’s Senior Affordable Rental Apartments (SARA) and New York State’s Supportive Housing Initiative (ESSHI).
Onsite Services
JASA provides on-site social and transitional services in affordable senior housing developments, including several sites where 30% of the units are designated for formerly homeless older adults. These services are available to all tenants, with targeted outreach and case assistance offered to formerly homeless seniors as they transition back to community living.
Support includes care coordination, benefits and entitlement assistance, crisis intervention, recreational and health promotion activities, and health literacy education. JASA fosters a strong sense of community within these housing developments, promoting healthy aging and social connectedness for all residents.
