Gift from J-Sei ; 2023.
In 1971, East Bay Japanese for Action (EBJA) was founded, organizing outings and social events for the Issei generation of
Japanese Americans. EBJA established bilingual case management services and a nutrition program serving Japanese lunches.
Following a merger between EBJA and East Bay Issei Housing in 1986, the combined entity was named Japanese American Services
of the East Bay (JASEB), providing culturally sensitive senior housing options for seniors and a senior center offering classes
and other activities. As of 2023, J-Sei continues as a community care and cultural organization that serves multi-generational
and multi-ethnic communities and aims to nurture and pass on Nikkei values and traditions.
