CARE ISN’T WORKING AND WE ARE THE ANSWER.

America is getting sicker and lonelier while trending older, and care demands are outpacing capacity. We believe that our approach to care could make or break the country.

READ OUR CASE

IT’S TIME FOR MORE NEIGHBORS TO GROW VILLAGES.

Community care shapes our basic health more than medical care. That means neighbors can make the best care partners and providers. We imagine neighbors transforming care.

SEE WHAT WE SEE

GROWING VILLAGES IS SERIOUS BUSINESS, BUT SO IS PLAY!

Play is essential for the health and well-being of people of all ages. Plus, play deprivation in childhood is linked to a tendency for violence and other life dysfunctions.

RETHINK PLAY

Here’s our plan

OUR VISION FOR ALL PEOPLE IS THE SAME AS OUR NAME: A VILLAGE FOR LIFE.

Here’s our starting plan to make that happen:

STORYTELLING

Attracting village growers and kind supporters while serving caregivers and graying adults by sharing care ideas, resources and spiritual wisdom.

TRANSLATING

Turning research and insights into tips, tools and products to make growing villages—or creating true prosperity—fun and doable for folks of all ages.

PARTNERING

Partnering with multifamily housing owners, care providers, local leaders and more to activate neighbors as health creators and cost savers.

When neighbors connect & create, we all thrive.
