Don't Outlive Your Health

Americans are living longer but spending less time in good health, resulting in a healthspan-lifespan gap. The work of The Center is providing and supporting choices that influence healthspan and promote well-being in older age.

Dementia Friendly

The Center is committed to being understanding and respectful of people living with dementia or cognitive impairment so that they can safely continue to engage in the community. Our goal is to provide supportive options that foster quality of life for the thousands of Central Virginians living with these conditions.
