Meyer Balser NORC
(Naturally Occurring Retirement Community) 


About Us

The Meyer Balser NORC serves the needs of the older adults in a community program of The William Breman Jewish Home and is funded by The Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta. A NORC serves local seniors by offering them innovative programs and services to help them live independently in their own homes to “age in place.”

The Meyer Balser NORC promotes health and wellness by linking older adults with services, offering assistance on health-related issues, and creating opportunities for socialization and learning. We are conveniently located in The Zaban Tower on The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Campus on Howell Mill Road in northwest Atlanta. 

The NORC offers something of value to everyone. Improve your Quality of Life through active participation in the Meyer Balser NORC.
