A new standard in long-term care
Let's work together to ensure that everyone feels a deep sense of purpose until they pass away.
The Impact of Loneliness
Our Unique Approach
We train and pair students and older adults in long-term care to work on projects to craft a sense of purpose. Through 1-on-1, intergenerational projects, residents in our program put their skills and knowledge on display. This restores dignity and helps them see their value.
Meet Kathy

Before Create Circles
Kathy was passionate about cooking before moving to a nursing home. She took pride in nurturing her family through food, so it was a large part of her identity. So, it was heartbreaking for her to give it up.

With Create Circles
However, when Kathy met our student volunteer, Anna, they crafted a 155-page cookbook together. While Kathy may still not be able to cook, she feels valued, connected to her community, and a deep sense of purpose again.
Resident well-being is just the beginning
Attract New Residents
Our projects attract new residents because they serve lead to viral, organic marketing content.
Reduce Costs
By providing 1-on-1 cognitive engagement without hiring more staff, we save our parters thousands per year.
Email Reports
Our consistent well-being reports allow communities to focus their energy on the best ways to engage each resident.
Data Collection
Our visits serve as a novel way for communities to collect data, which can help current and attract new residents.
Create Circles provides a spot of light and a chance to share a laugh for our residents. We are so thankful for this program!
