Senior Services

As people age, it is important for them to maintain their value and independence.

Alexander Jewish Family Service understands how needs change as we age and strives to provide an inclusive and supportive environment to help meet the needs of seniors in our local Jewish and Greater Houston Community.

Using the Protective Factors for Maintaining Independence (PFMI) as the evaluation system to assess a senior's situation, we offer services and solutions to help seniors and their families work together to achieve this goal in an inclusive and supportive environment.

Whether you or a loved one needs help, reaching out to us today will ensure we can provide you with services as quickly as possibly. Contact us at: (713) 667-9336 or cm@alexanderjfs.org

We provide:
  • Case management
  • Facilitation of family meetings
  • Safety assessments
  • Problem solving
  • Client safety, autonomy and confidentiality
