In 2025, JVS partnered with the San Francisco Campus for Jewish Living (SFCJL) to strengthen recruitment, retention, and career pathways in long-term care. Our six-month engagement reflects a shared commitment to improving job quality and supporting the frontline healthcare workforce.

JVS provided targeted technical assistance focused on three priorities: aligning candidates with the right roles, streamlining hiring and onboarding processes, and designing internal career pathways to expand professional development. Over the course of the project, the JVS team facilitated staff engagement sessions, conducted onsite observations, and introduced a nationally recognized job quality framework. These efforts resulted in clear, actionable recommendations to support workforce stability and long-term success for the organization.

By centering practical, measurable interventions, JVS and SFCJL are laying the groundwork for a stronger, more inclusive care workforce. This collaboration demonstrates how employers can invest in their teams to improve stability and outcomes for both staff and the communities they serve.

Employers interested in strengthening their own workforce strategies can connect with JVS to learn more about how we partner with organizations to improve retention, recruitment, and career pathways.

“JVS’s assessment gave us a valuable external lens on our hiring, onboarding, and retention practices. We now have an action plan to recruit and retain exceptional staff. The older adults who entrust their care to us deserve nothing less, and this collaboration empowers us to move forward with clarity, purpose, and commitment to workforce excellence.“

– Adrienne Green, MD, CEO, S.F. Campus for Jewish Living
