Our home, Anathan House, originally was donated to house NCJW's Council Lounge for Older People and Squirrel Hill's senior adult program. NCJW continues its legacy of service to the aging in Pittsburgh. Our Services to the Elderly committee conducts several important projects including:
- Residential Profile Project
Interviews with residents of Weinberg Village residential facilities to provide information on their doors for visitors and caregivers.
- Annual Fall Program, frequently in collaboration with AgeWell, a collaboration of the Jewish Family & Children's Service, the Jewish Community Center of Greater Pittsburgh and the Jewish Association on Aging NCJW.
Recent topics have included "Medicare's New Coverage for Prescription Drugs" and "A Looming Crisis: Election Focus on Issues of Importance to Seniors." Programs are offered at no cost.
- Articles in each NCJW Bulletin (newsletter) addressing the issue of aging and the needs of the elderly.
