Hebrew SeniorLife’s Spiritual Care Program embodies a century-long commitment to respecting elders and redefining aging. Originating in 1903 to address the unmet needs of Boston’s Jewish seniors, our organization understands the importance of inclusive spiritual support. This deep-rooted heritage informs our modern approach to spiritual care, ensuring a supportive environment for everyone regardless of faith, background, or identity.
Driven by our Jewish values, we believe in fostering a spiritually enriching experience for all. This commitment translates into a diverse team of board-certified interfaith chaplains and tailored resources across our senior living communities, chronic care hospitals, and in-home care services. Our dedication to inclusion ensures that each individual receives personalized spiritual care that resonates with their unique beliefs and background.
