We honored Rabbi Kohn’s retirement with a heartfelt Oneg Shabbat after a lively Shabbat service. The event was full of song and a touching reminder that change, though inevitable, can be beautiful.

Staff and residents shared their gratitude for all she’s done. One resident said he had never held a Torah until this year, when Rabbi Kohn handed it to him during Simchat Torah. He described it as one of the most meaningful moments of his life, something that reignited his love for Judaism.

Rabbi Kohn herself said the love in the room was palpable and that she was moved to tears.

We wish Rabbi Kohn all the best in her next chapter and may it be filled with relaxation and countless new adventures!

From vintage treasures to handmade finds, our rummage sale was filled with great discoveries (and even better conversations). More importantly, all proceeds support programs that bring creativity and connection to life at Frank Residences.

This weekend, more than 30 volunteers and staff at SFCJL took part in Conscious Touch Teams training, a program that uses gentle, intentional touch to foster comfort and connection for individuals in long-term support or nearing end of life.

“It was an eye-opening training,” said Catherine Reid, Director of Quality of Life/LCSW. “It really honed the value of being present with residents.”

We’re grateful to all who joined us.

This month, we join communities around the world in recognizing Alzheimer’s Awareness Month. At the San Francisco Campus for Jewish Living, we see firsthand the strength of those living with dementia and the unwavering dedication of the people who care for them. Thank you to our staff, families, and partners who help ensure that every person we serve is met with compassion, respect, and purposeful engagement.

Celebrating Our Veterans in Song and Spirit

On this Veterans Day, we came together as a community to honor the brave men and women who have served our country.

A heartfelt thank you to Lovin’ Harmony for filling our campus with joy and nostalgia through their beautiful renditions of 1920s–1960s jazz and pop classics. Their close harmonies reminded us that music, like service, has the power to bring people together.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebration of our veterans.

A Community of Compassion in Action

Every Saturday morning, the San Francisco Campus for Jewish Living hosts the Excelsior Community Food Pantry, a volunteer-run nonprofit providing essential groceries to hundreds of local families facing food insecurity.

The partnership began when the pantry suddenly lost its space. Thanks to a chance connection between a pastor and a rabbi, the Campus opened its doors, and a lasting relationship was formed.

Today, the pantry serves 350 neighbors every week. Pantry volunteers, students, families, seniors, and SFCJL residents, distribute fresh produce, grains, and proteins rain or shine. Rooted in shared values of dignity, compassion, and care for all, this collaboration reflects our mission to serve others with respect and heart.

If you'd like to volunteer or learn more, contact foodpantry@missionbaycc.org.

Throughout November, our community has come together, thanks to our very own resident, Joan, who inspired and organized us to honor loved ones during Día de los Mu***os.

Joan reminded us that remembrance is a shared act of love. From decorating our ofrenda with marigolds to sharing stories, she helped us celebrate the beauty of memory, together.

At the San Francisco Campus for Jewish Living, we honor every life and every story that continues to shape our community. May their memories always be a blessing.

🎃👻 Halloween Fun at SFCJL! 🕷️🧙‍♀️🕸️

Our campus was full of laughter, creativity, and spooky spirit the last few days as we celebrated Halloween together! 👻🍬 Residents enjoyed a special visit from students at San Francisco Community School, who joined in for festive trick-or-treating and performances. Our staff also showed off their Halloween spirit with a costume and pumpkin carving contest, bringing out some truly impressive (and hilarious!) creations! 🎃🧛‍♀️🧟‍♂️

A big thank-you to everyone who helped make the Halloween weekend such a warm, joyful, and frightfully fun celebration for our community! 💛🦇

Team Frank Shines Again! 💜

What a day! The Frank Residences team showed up in full spirit at the 2025 Walk to End Alzheimer’s. We were honored to receive the Heartfelt Creativity Award for our enthusiasm and our inspired selfie booth.

Together, we raised an incredible $8,339 to advance Alzheimer’s research, awareness, and hope. A huge thank you to everyone who walked, donated, and cheered us on, you make our community shine.

Special thanks to our talented receptionist, Rico Solian, for the stunning drone photos that captured the joy of the day!

Research shows that community living can boost quality of life, health, happiness, and even longevity. Human beings are wired for connection. Shared meals, engaging activities, and spontaneous hallway conversations reduce loneliness and foster a sense of belonging. People discover new friendships that bring joy and energy to daily life.

Join gerontologist Amy LaGrant on Wednesday, November 12 from 11:30 –1:30pm for an engaging conversation on aging trends, family dynamics, and senior living options.
