The Center for Aging with Dignity is devoted to keeping people “SAFE After 60” by advocating for, advancing and developing best-practice programs on promoting safety and preventing mistreatment of older people. Recognizing that safety risks increase with age, we focus on enhancing the ability of professionals to empower older people, families and organizations to maximize heath, wellness and independence.
The safety, well-being and health of older people are often compromised due to biological, psycho-social, and environmental factors. The information, programs and resources we share are designed to be practical and action oriented. In addition to content we originate, we aggregate research and develop programs and resources that can easily be applied to make a difference in the lives of older people.
Mission: Safe After 60
