Trusted VillagesSM
There is a problem in the world today. By 2030 over 20% of the U.S. population will be seniors over the age of 65. Government authorities and healthcare professionals agree that these older adults will live more healthy, vibrant lives if they can Age in Place. To support the ability to Age in Place, communities across America are banding together to create neighborhood Villages where local volunteers provide simple assistance enabling older adults to remain in their homes. As a result, they are building stronger communities and improving the well-being of the older adults in their community.
The mission of Trusted VillagesSM is to foster Aging in Place by following the Village movement model which helps seniors age in their own homes.
