Jewish Aging in Greater Orlando

Key Research Findings and Strategic Implications for the Community

The Jewish Aging in Greater Orlando report presents the findings of the S’firot Foundation’s comprehensive needs assessment of Jewish older adults and family caregivers across Central Florida. Drawing on community surveys, focus groups, and demographic analysis, the report explores the experiences, challenges, priorities, and aspirations of Jewish older adults and their caregivers. It also identifies opportunities to strengthen and develop programs, services, and community responses that address the needs identified through the research and support informed, evidence-based decision-making.

An important component of the Foundation’s broader research is the Landscape Analysis, which complements and provides a wider view of the programs, practices, and opportunities shaping services for older adults and family caregivers. It examines what is currently available across Greater Orlando while also highlighting best practices, emerging trends, and innovative models from communities across the country and abroad. Together with the Needs Assessment findings, it offers a valuable resource for exploring opportunities to strengthen existing services and develop new, innovative approaches for Jewish older adults and family caregivers. Explore the Landscape Analysis.
