We are here to make a meaningful difference in the lives of older adults.

Social Connection

We combat the growing issue of social isolation in older adults by offering group activities, social events, and companionship programs. These initiatives create opportunities for seniors to connect with others, form meaningful friendships, and feel part of a vibrant community.

Resource Navigation

We understand that accessing services can be overwhelming, especially for those unfamiliar with available options. We provide guidance and resources to help seniors and their families navigate healthcare, housing, food, and financial support systems.

Why It Matters

Seniors are frequently an overlooked population of aging citizens with limited resources who typically aren't prioritized by other organizations or focus groups. The aging population faces unique challenges that can often be overwhelming and isolating. Issues like mobility limitations, chronic health conditions and loneliness can affect the quality of life and mental health.

The Lavender Policy Center ensures that aging individuals are not forgotten but embraced with the care, love, and respect they deserve. Our programs offer more than just assistance; they offer a sense of belonging, comfort, and hope.
