SAME GREAT ORGANIZATION...WITH A NEW IMAGE AND FORWARD-THINKING MISSION!!

Following trends in the “aging” sector and after years of strategic planning activities, we are excited to announce the next phase of our organization! Building on nearly 50 years of operational experience, we are embracing a more multi-generational approach to how we engage with the community. Although our day-to-day operations won’t change much, we are now better positioned to grow and be more impactful. Looking forward to what lies ahead…
