Representatives from the White House Conference on Aging (WHCOA) and THE GREEN HOUSE ® Project visited the Leonard Florence Center for Living (LFCL) in Chelsea, MA. The Center is the first urban Green House skilled nursing community in the country. Nora Super, Executive Director (WHCOA) and Rachel Maisler, Deputy Communications Director (WHCOA) traveled from Washington to see, first hand, how The Green House model supports a successful aging and good jobs.  Senior Director of The Green House Project, Susan Frazier and Director of Outreach, Scott Brown, were in attendance; Betsy Mullen, COO of the Chelsea Jewish Foundation, the non-profit organization that operates LFCL, directed the visit. 

The Green House website is an important channel to inspire people about the potential of this model, and move them to action. Our goal is to make The Green House model a reality in every community.   With over 5,000 visits per month, the website is a premier channel for healthcare providers, advocates, elders and family members, policy makers and other stakeholders to learn more about the value and differentiation of The Green House model.
