Vibrant communities and
aging well go hand-in-hand

The Connecticut Age Well Collaborative fosters inclusive, accessible communities where we all can age well. We’re part of Connecticut Community Care, a nonprofit that helps people live their best lives at home, with support services and connections to loved ones and community.

Delegated by the Commission on Women, Children, Seniors, Equity & Opportunity, we’re leading the state’s livable communities initiative (Section 17b-420a of the Connecticut General Statutes). Livable communities are vibrant places where we can all thrive across the lifespan.

Our Founder

The Connecticut Age Well Collaborative is an initiative of Connecticut Community Care.

Connecticut Community Care helps people live their best lives at home with meaningful connection to services and support, right around them. Understanding that thriving at home requires our communities to be ready to support residents across the lifespan, Connecticut Community Care founded the Connecticut Age Well Collaborative in 2020.
