Details
Description: A national fee-based organization dedicated to helping seniors age-in-place, stay involved, avoid isolation & enjoy social interaction through planned events including monthly coffee gathering. This is not a bricks & mortar place for aging. Services are not available yet as we build our membership base. Diverse groups are a goal.

We are governed by a Board of Directors we refer to as the Strategic Planning Team. We have the standard officers of any board & a monthly mtg to conduct business of the Village Santa Cruz County entity.
Mission: Community circles formed throughout the county for support neighborhood by neighborhood for aging adults. Intergenerational involvement encouraged. Presently we have formed one Circle: Santa Cruz Village Circle which includes the geographic area within the city limits. To form other circles requires people interested in forming them.
Programs: Monthly events. Eventually as volunteers offer services, we'll be able to offer household assistance of various kinds. This is not an org that offers home health care.
Facilities: Various venues. Our office resides within the Volunteer Center of SC County office presently. They are our fiscal agent until we are able to obtain 503(c)3 non-profit status.
