Senior Peer Advocates (SPA) are now at City of San Jose Community Centers.
SPA volunteers are trained and certified to help seniors and their families find help. They provide information and assistance to connect San Jose residents to a variety of community resources, services and benefits, such as transportation, food, health care, caregiving/family support, legal services, and social/educational activities.
SPAvolunteers work alongside our teams of gerontology specialists to support and promote graceful aging and continued independence inSan Jose. SPAs are not care managers, but they are trained to listen and talk to you about your needs. SPA appointments are available, free of charge, at the participating CSJ community centers.
