The BITE Senior Cares Program is more than a program.
It's a family of compassion, dignity, friendship, wellness, and support. We encourage all adults and seniors to become part of a caring community where love, respect, encouragement, and assistance are shared with dignity.
Families are encouraged to help their parents, grandparents, loved ones, neighbors, and seniors to connect with the BITE Senior Cares Program so they may experience fellowship, wellness support, social engagement, special events, helpful resources, and a community that truly cares.
No senior should feel forgotten or alone. At BITE, we believe every senior deserves respect, compassion, joy, and meaningful connection. Together, we can continue building stronger families, healthier lives, and a more caring Jersey City community.
Join the BITE Senior Cares Program today because caring for our seniors means caring for our future.
