In partnership with Envoy America, JFed Rides is an accompanied transportation service that provides rides for older adults* and other residents of Burlington, Camden, and Gloucester Counties. Using their own older adult-friendly vehicles, paid companion drivers will come to the client’s door, help them get into the car, and walk them back to their door. They can even help put groceries away!

JFed Rides reflects our shared commitment to keeping older adults engaged in the community through social, recreational, and cultural programming. Envoy America is solely focused on providing services for older adults. Each companion driver is trained to have relevant skills that are key to helping an older adult, such as how to interact with a person with memory issues. Companion drivers are First Aid / CPR certified. Envoy America’s paid companion drivers will come to the client’s door, help them get into the car, stow their transfer-wheelchair or walker, carry their bags, and walk them back to their door.

JFed Rides currently offers “door through door” transportation to doctors’ appointments, medical procedures requiring sedation or anesthesia, events and programs hosted by the Jewish Federation of Southern New Jersey and its family of agencies, or to a place of the member’s choice. This service is open to community members of every age, faith, and background! Financial subsidies may be available for those who qualify. Envoy can be used for additional rides but fees will apply.
