"The Cayuga Community Connectors (CLC) aging-in-place project brought an Always Active exercise class into the neighborhood last January.  This three-mornings a week class has attracted so many seniors - many bring friends and neighbors -- it has almost outgrown the space.  There is a lively buzz before and after classes as people (ages 64 to 89 years) get to know each other.

Now, twice-monthly refreshments, board games and post-class interaction have been initiated. Here, connections are built, community is deepened.

Many thanks to San Francisco Supervisor John Avalos and Director Anne Hinton (SF Department of Aging and Adult Services), for their support of this grassroots program."  

CLC is proud to provide guidance and administrative services for these exuberant community happenings.  For more information or to attend, email Glenda at sfnm@pacbell.net.

The nonprofit Community Living Campaign (CLC) has been working since 2007 to deliver programs and rally advocates who want to live in communities where people are less isolated and everyone is called to contribute.

CLC reweaves the relationships that people need to age and thrive in their own communities. We believe that seniors and people with disabilities are their own valuable assets -- they already know what their community needs. Working with these neighbors and local organizations, CLC develops free and low-cost programs to:

• Reduce isolation
• Increase access to technology
• Promote advocacy and other skills
• And make new friends

Because aging in community requires change at all levels, we also advocate for better, more realistic local, state and national government policies and funding.
