| How you help | Our comprehensive programming promotes healthy and holistic aging, prolongs independence, and enhances the dignity and overall quality of life for over 18,000 older adults annually. In the past year we’ve served over 295,000 meals, provided over 9,000 hours of case management, more than 12,000 transportation rides, nearly 300 advocacy and public policy engagements, and over 2,000 wellness classes and activities. Volunteers are integral to meeting our goals and serving our members. From the time a member enters our center and is greeted, to when they are served lunch, and participate in engaging activities, volunteers are engaged throughout. The reach of SBSS into the lives of so many older adults is dependent on volunteers. |

| About us | Founded in 1908, St. Barnabas Senior Services (SBSS) is a nonsectarian, nonprofit organization grounded in the belief that all older adults have the right to age with dignity. As the oldest senior service agency in LA, SBSS has grown from operating a single center in Mid-City to what it is today – a dynamic service agency developing new models of care and providing innovative services throughout the Greater Los Angeles Area and beyond. SBSS has sustained services over more than a century of changing needs related to aging, but we have never wavered from our commitment to diversity and inclusion. In fulfilling our mission to empower a diverse community of older adults to Live Well, Feel Well, and Age Well in the community with dignity and respect, we provide services that are culturally, linguistically, and generationally appropriate to the diverse client population we serve. |
