The office of San Diego District Attorney and office of Chula Vista Mayor John McCann along with National City Mayor Ron Morrison and Vice Mayor Ditas will be present to speak on elder abuse and senior care. “The holiday season can sometimes bring feelings of sadness, especially for older adults who may reflect on how quickly time has passed or feel the absence of loved ones more deeply during this time of year,” said JSC Founder Angel Ogapong. “Having been the primary caregiver for my grandparents, I recognize the importance of encouraging seniors to stay proactive in their care for long-term health, which includes making sure they are knowledgeable on the valuable resources that are available to them.” Founded by San Diego native Angel Ogapong, JSC aims to provide seniors with a sense of belonging through community, engagement, education and health and wellness. JSC also assists seniors in navigating Medicare benefits and connecting them with additional resources they may not be aware of, all at no cost. Tagalog and Spanish translators will be available to assist. The San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) will be present to provide resources for low-income seniors. The Union of Pan Asian Communities (UPAC), the only organization throughout the county that offers mental health services for seniors, will also be available.

Join us for our biggest fundraiser of the year to support the Spring Valley Historical Society and maintenance for the Bancroft Ranch House Museum! The sale will take place at the Bancroft Ranch House Museum, located at the end of Memory Lane, just south of Hwy 94, off the Bancroft Dr. exit. Spread the word and bring your friends for great bargains and a welcoming atmosphere! We’re still accepting donations of gently used items—anything you would want to buy! Please avoid donating broken or unusable items, as disposing of these adds extra work for our team. We could also use volunteers to help with setting up tables, moving boxes, and pricing items in the week leading up to the event (November 4th-8th). If you’re free anytime after 9 a.m., we’d love to have your help! Thank you for your support!
