Scholarships & Awards

JFR supports the work of those working on issues affecting elders as well as those working directly with elders. It has given the Richard Ladd Award since 2003 for those working to improve community based care for elders. Scholarship support has been given to service learning students working in Nicaragua since 2004. Beginning in 2009, the Donna Sanders Award will be given to a direct care worker for promoting well-being and Life Enrichment Activities Program. JFR has also provided support to other organizations supporting elders such as the Oregon Gerontological Association and the Assisted Living Special Interest Group of the Gerontological Association of America.
