F or over twenty-five years, non-profit, community-owned Living at Home/Block Nurse Programs have helped elders stay healthy while living in their own homes. Elderberry Institute was established as a resource center to support these community efforts and extend the Program model to new neighborhoods, towns and cities. In turn, elders remain safe and independent, while still socially involved in their communities.

If you need elder services, want to start a Program in your community, want to volunteer, support this Program with your gift or just want to learn more, we welcome your contact and look forward to getting to know you.
