KCOA forms area partnership with Rosen JCC

The Kinneret Council on Aging, an area nonprofit that provides life enhancing resources to the over 300 residents of Kinneret Apartments and to the aging population outside its walls, has formed a partnership with the Rosen JCC to provide engaging programming to seniors in Southwest Orlando.

Coined “KCOA on the Road,” the speaker series expands the programming that KCOA provides in the community to a senior population that is currently underserved. Started in January 2025, programming has included topics covering financial wellness, brain health and interior design to thrive in place. Upcoming programs include:

April 24 — Presentation by the Holocaust Memorial and Resource Center

May 29 — “AI – Man and Machine,” presented by a UCF Professor

“We have been looking to expand to the larger senior community the meaningful and impactful programming Kinneret residents have received for so many years, and KCOA on the Road allows us to do this,” said Neal Blaher, KCOA’s president. “We also look forward to further expanding these types of programs in the future,” he continued.

The speaker series is held on the last Thursday of each month from 11:30 a.m. – 1p.m. at the Rosen JCC, located at 11184 S. Apopka Vineland Rd., Orlando, FL 32836. The speaker series is free to the public. Bagels and coffee are also served. RSVP is required. For more information or to RSVP, email Jennifer Jacobson at Southwestjewishseniors@gmail.com.

Southwest Jewish Seniors is a non-religious group of active older adults from the Dr. Phillips area, gathering at the Rosen JCC for weekly social, educational and recreational activities. Programs include game days, lecture sponsors by Kinneret Council on Aging, holiday parties, field trips and more. Future plans include a book club, technology workshops, fitness classes, and indoor pickleball. For more information, please email Jennifer Jacobson at SouthwestJewishSeniors@gmail.com.
