Program Information

Jerry’s Place is a Social Model Hospice Home located in Mariposa Assisted Living in Seaside, California. We offer a comfortable home-like environment for individuals enrolled in a hospice program to live out their final days, specifically when they do not have a safe and stable living situation or caregiver. We are the only facility in Monterey county offering these services.

Jerry’s Place is an initiative of the Jerry Rubin Foundation and is supported  by a grant received from the Hospice Giving Foundation.
