At the Community Living Campaign, we’re working toward a San Francisco where we can all live and thrive in our homes and neighborhoods as we grow older. We started in 2008 as a neighborhood-based way to provide seniors and adults with disabilities with what they need to live a good life. This need continues to grow as our population ages and income disparities widen. We bring greater joy, health, and connectedness to San Francisco seniors and people with disabilities through community-building, empowerment, and advocacy. We organize free activities and programs like computer classes, healthy aging workshops, senior exercise groups, and grocery delivery. These activities offer practical support and teach valuable skills. But most importantly, they create opportunities for folks to make the friendships they need to age well at home. Studies show that only 20% of what people need to age at home comes from formal services – the other 80% comes from friends, faith groups, and other community connections. Meeting the needs of an aging population is a huge undertaking. So we also build coalitions, bringing together neighbors, community organizations, businesses, and City agencies to organize and advocate around issues that are too big for any of us to solve alone. Most recently, these have included the SF Tech Council and the Dignity Fund Coalition. Together, we can create an inclusive San Francisco where people of all ages and abilities can truly live “in community” – with all of the rich relationships and opportunities that define a good life.
