Jewish Community Housing Corporation For Seniors in Northern NJ, an Active Community Offering Independent Living, Assisted Living & More.

At the Jewish Community Housing Corporation of Metropolitan New Jersey, we are dedicated not only to meeting but exceeding the highest expectations of the retirees who live in our active and assisted living communities, as well as their families. Our goal is not just to provide a place to live, but a true sense of community. We do this with compassion, with respect, and with a good deal of joy. Our housing offers seniors a matter of choice when it comes to their living preferences, including a choice of location, ambience, services, activities, cost and size.

We are honored and proud to share that Lester Senior Living has once again been named Best of Essex for Senior Care for 2025—and we are equally proud to have earned this recognition in 2024 as well.

Winning Best of Essex two years in a row is a meaningful reflection of the trust our residents, families, and community place in us each day. This recognition belongs to our dedicated team, whose compassion, professionalism, and commitment to excellence make Lester Senior Living such a special place to call home.

Thank you to everyone who voted, supported us, and continues to be part of our Lester community. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve and look forward to continuing to provide exceptional care, connection, and community for the years ahead.

Nothing says Hanukkah like fresh, warm donuts. Our residents and families loved the Hanukkah donut truck at Lester Senior Living today — a sweet way to celebrate 25 Years of Light and bring extra joy to the Festival of Lights. Thank you to everyone who joined us for this delicious tradition.

Happy Hanukkah from all of us at the Jewish Community Housing Corporation.

As we light the menorah this Hanukkah, we are reminded of the enduring power of hope, resilience, and community. Each candle represents the light we bring to one another through compassion, care, and connection—values that guide everything we do across our JCHC communities.

May this Festival of Lights bring warmth to your home, comfort to your heart, and peace to you and your loved ones. We are grateful to our residents, families, staff, and supporters for being part of our extended JCHC family.

Chag Sameach and Happy Hanukkah.

We are thrilled to share a very special milestone from our Narra Story Program.

A few months ago, we introduced this meaningful initiative designed to help our residents preserve their personal histories. Today, we are proud to announce that the books are complete — and each resident has received both a hardcover and paperback edition of their memoirs.

These are more than stories. They are cherished memories, life lessons, and legacies that families can hold onto for generations.

At our book reveal celebration, the families of our “Lester Authors” joined us to witness this heartfelt moment. Their joy in seeing their loved ones’ stories beautifully captured was truly unforgettable.

This was an extraordinary project to witness from start to finish, and we are honored to have been part of preserving these lasting memories.
