We provide services that help seniors live independently in their own homes, around their familiar settings and environment, which is where they want to be, and give them peace of mind. What's unique about us is that we stay with them; we don't just drop them off and leave them to fend for themselves!
NESA is located on the grounds of MacArthur Park Lutheran Church, in the red-brick house called Faith House #5.

YOU can Make a Difference!
The elderly have given so much of themselves throughout their lives, won’t you help them in their time of need? We need you to lend a hand with the things seniors can no longer do so that they can continue to live in their own homes instead of relocating to an institution.
NESA volunteers gain personal satisfaction in helping others. One of our volunteers calls it "food for my soul."
Think of it as helping your mother or your neighbor.
Ways you can help:
- Driver
- Telephone Reassurance
- Shopper
- Handy Helper
- Office Help
- Special Projects
