Transforming Age

Transforming Age is a nationally recognized nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of older adults by offering an integrated network of housing, community services, technology, philanthropy, and partnerships.

Founded in 1956, the organization operates over 75 communities across 23 states, serving more than 125,000 individuals.

Housing Services

Transforming Age provides a diverse range of housing options tailored to meet the varying needs of older adults. These include Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs), independent and assisted living communities, memory care facilities, and affordable housing units.

Their portfolio spans multiple states, including Washington, Minnesota, Nebraska, California, South Dakota, Colorado, Kansas, Illinois, and Iowa.

Community Services

Beyond housing, Transforming Age offers comprehensive community services designed to support older adults in maintaining independence and quality of life.

These services encompass adult day health programs, home care assistance, and community-based services for low-income seniors. The organization also runs philanthropic initiatives such as the Mercy Brown Bag program, which provides nutritious meals to those in need.

Technology and Innovation

Embracing technological advancements, Transforming Age integrates innovative solutions to enhance the aging experience. This includes partnerships with tech companies to develop assistive devices and platforms that promote independence and well-being among older adults.

For instance, the organization has explored collaborations to introduce Powered Clothing — suits with robotic components designed to assist with daily activities.

Philanthropy and Partnerships

Philanthropy plays a crucial role in Transforming Age's mission. The organization supports various programs aimed at addressing the challenges of an aging society, such as funding continuing education for healthcare professionals and investing in sustainable infrastructure projects.

Strategic partnerships, like the affiliation with Elder Care Alliance in California, enable Transforming Age to expand its reach and impact, providing a broader array of programs and care options to older adults.
