"I was the primary caretaker for my grandparents, and as they got older I saw how much their daily lives and overall health were affected by lack of engagement and community," said JSC Founder Angel Ogapong. "I decided to launch JSC to alleviate the disengagement seniors were experiencing while educating them about free resources that are not only available to them, but created for them."
JSC also helps seniors navigate through Medicare benefits and bridge access to additional resources that they may not know are available to them at no cost.
Medicare health insurance representatives will be present to educate seniors about benefiting programs. Community partners American Medical Response and SuiteCare Pharmacy will provide free healthcare screenings for attendees.
Supporting nonprofits including Filipino American Chamber of Commerce Greater San Diego and the National Latina Business Women Association San Diego will be at the event.
Philippine musical artist Nyoy Volante, also known as "King of Philippine Acoustic Pop," will perform a special performance for attending guests.
