Together We Can

JABA is a mission-driven nonprofit that prides itself on the supportive, person-centered approach we have for those we serve and our staff. Our innovative and collaborative work environment enables us to be the main resource for all those on the aging journey in Charlottesville City and Albemarle, Greene, Fluvanna, Louisa, and Nelson Counties.

We know that to privide the best care for others, we must first care for ourselves. Staff can access a wide range of benefits including paid time off for employees working 20+ hours and competitive health, vision, dental benefits, and gym membership rebates for full-time employees (30+ hours). All employees benefit from professional development, tuition assistance, and mental health resources. The empathy we show each other, and ourselves, is essential as it extends to our community.

Together we can transform the aging landscape and build livable communities for those of all ages.
