Welcome to SAYVA Network — a collaborative initiative focused on community, positive aging and wisdom.
SAYVA includes Fountainview of LA Jewish Health, HaMakom, Kol Tikvah, Temple Ahavat Shalom, Temple Judea, Temple Ramat Zion, and Valley Beth Shalom. The SAVYA Network has been made possible by the generous support of the Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles with Valley Beth Shalom as the fiscal partner.
Sayva means the wisdom and depth that comes in our later years,” says Rabbi Ed Feinstein.
“Unlike American culture, Jewish tradition never saw old age as a time of diminishment, disability and loss. The old were never retired, removed or isolated. The Jewish tradition recognized that elders possess a capacity to see life from higher perspectives. The tradition honored and celebrated the unique contributions of elders to our collective life. The goal of SAYVA is to make the years of Later Adulthood joyful, interesting and purposeful – a time of life to be anticipated, celebrated and cherished.
