Information and Referral
JF&CS is part of AgeWell Pittsburgh, a collaboration of three agencies offering a number of services for senior adults, their caregivers and family members. One call to the our AgeWell Pittsburgh information and referral line at JF&CS puts you in contact with a knowledgeable specialist who will help you get the service and support you need—from AgeWell Pittsburgh partner agencies (JF&CS, the Jewish Community Center or Jewish Association on Aging)—or through other community resources.
