The Jefferson Area Board for Aging's (JABA) mission is to promote, establish and preserve sustainable communities for healthy aging that benefit individuals and families of all ages. JABA accomplishes this by working with community partners for the good of the entire community. JABA was founded in 1975[citation needed].
