Supportive Services

A Caring Environment Dedicated to Helping Older Adults Stay Independent and Connected

Our New Home

CJE SeniorLife’s new home for our Counseling, Benefits, Legal, Care Management, and Holocaust Community Services is in our Delighter/Winston Center for Aging Well, located at 3033 West Touhy Avenue in Chicago.

The new offices are just a few hundred feet from the Bernard Horwich JCC and are accessed from the same parking lot as before—only now you will have a much shorter walk from your car to our front door! We look forward to seeing you in our new location.

SUPPORT FOR OLDER ADULTS & THEIR FAMILIES

Whether it’s securing legal or financial assistance, making connections with new friends, or getting support through challenging times, we match you to the right program to address your immediate and long-term needs.

ADULT DAY SERVICES

Family caregivers have true peace of mind knowing their loved ones are engaged each day with our caring, professional team at CJE SeniorLife’s Adult Day Services (ADS) in Deerfield and Evanston. Our expert staff provides supervised, structured socialization along with support and stimulating programs for seniors.

BENEFITS SERVICES

Our team of highly-experienced professionals are available to help you identify and apply for the broadest range possible of benefits and support services. Our staff provides a person-centered service that helps seniors and their families find ways to reduce expenses and increase income so they can live in the community with dignity and respect as they age. Our service is available at many locations across the Chicago area in English and Russian.

CARE MANAGEMENT

Our talented, experienced, and caring team of social workers collaborate and support older adults’ independence with a focus on their quality of life: health, comfort, safety, and happiness with a clear commitment to fostering their dignity. Together, we have extensive expertise and skills in the aspects of aging. Our approach is holistic and person-centered in how we offer seniors and their families support, guidance, referrals, and direct services.

CAREGIVER RESOURCES

Are you caring for an aging parent, spouse or other loved one who is dealing with illness, dementia, life transitions or losses? Caregiving is a demanding responsibility, with both potential rewards and serious challenges. CJE SeniorLife is here to help guide the way.

COUNSELING SERVICES

CJE Counseling Services is staffed by a team of highly-skilled Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs) who are specialists in the field of mental health services for seniors. Services are available on telehealth with a video or audio connection, in our offices, and some limited home visits.

FOOD SERVICES

CJE SeniorLife’s food services offer convenient, nutritious, and tasty options for daily meals or special occasion catering. Whether you’d love having frozen kosher meals on hand for a quick and easy meal, or the comfort of having fabulous, nutritious fare delivered to your home daily, you can depend on us for all your food needs.

HOLOCAUST COMMUNITY SERVICES

The number of Holocaust survivors turning to community agencies has steadily increased as aging and frailty take their toll; in just the past six years, HCS quintupled in clients. The project now serves more than 1,900 survivors with monthly financial assistance, and over 2,000 in total with other programming, referrals, and socialization opportunities.

LEGAL SERVICES

CJE’s legal team is available for in-person, telephone, or virtual (Zoom) appointments to assist with civil legal matters. Our services are available to those age 60 and older and living in Illinois.
