WHAT IS THE VILLAGE MOVEMENT ?
The village movement is an innovative organization that has emerged in North Carolina the last decade in the organizational field of support services for community-dwelling older adults (Prof. A. Scharlach, UC Berkeley). The village movement is one of the most viable options to let our society cope with the upcoming “Revolution Aging”
Aging at Home but not Alone!
We looked beyond conventional solutions. We wanted more freedom and control than we found in models that focus on single issues, such as housing, medical care, or social activities. We wanted to be active, taking care of ourselves and each other rather than being “taken care of.”
A PROVEN MODEL
Beacon Hill, proved that seniors wanted to get together around local villages, help each other and be part of an active community of seniors. A model so promising, that after a few years 200 villages have sprung all across the nation and many others are in the works.
