Northeast Senior Assistance (NESA) provides free senior transportation, homebound senior assistance, grocery delivery, minor home help, social isolation, and aging in place in Northeast San Antonio. They served San Antonio since 1984 and provide free volunteer-based services that help older adults remain independent in their own homes. Services include escorted transportation, grocery shopping and delivery, telephone reassurance, Handy Helper assistance, social activities, and information and referrals.

TRANSPORTATION - Individual escorted rides to and from your regular medical, dental, vision, lab, and vaccine appointments. We stay with the client. No surgeries, please.

GROCERY SHOPPING - Shopper will get your list and do the shopping for you; then deliver your groceries.

FOOD PANTRY DELIVERIES - We'll arrange to pick up your free items.

TELEPHONE REASSURANCE - A volunteer will call you on a regular basis and offer support and socialization.

HANDY HELPER - If you get rides, then you qualify for a "Handy Helper" to help with things you may no longer be able to do. Ex: hang pictures, change sheets, clean out a closet.

SOCIALIZATION EVENT - NESA hosts a Fall Fest every November. We pick up clients and return them after the festivities.

SENIOR SANTA DELIVERIES - Each December, through donations, we deliver gifts to low-income older adults. Sometimes, our gifts are the only ones they receive at Christmas.

INFORMATION/REFERRAL SERVICES - If we can't help you, we'll refer you to someone who can.
