About Us

EngAGE has enriched the lives of thousands of older adults and families with children since its founding in 1999.

 

EngAGE takes a whole-person approach to creative, healthy living by providing high quality arts, wellness, and lifelong learning programs to residents of all ages in affordable housing communities. Classes are professionally led and complemented by community-building activities and celebrations as well as intergenerational connections.

Programs are provided on-site and are open to all residents at no charge, reducing two primary barriers to engagement – cost and transportation – and maximizing our impact.

EngAGE is consistently recognized as a high-performing resident services provider and a leader in arts and aging programming. Together, EngAGE and EngAGE Northwest serve thousands of residents of all ages throughout California and Oregon.

Community for All Ages

EngAGE is honored to have helped create the Community For All Ages model in affordable housing through our long collaboration with Community Development Partners (CDP). CFAA is a proprietary model of CDP, a leading real estate development firm committed to sustainability, equity, and innovation.

Community for All Ages (CFAA) seeks to create neighborhood in its purest form, organically connecting generations through creative arts, lifelong learning, programs to improve the well-being of residents of all ages, and intentionally designed community spaces to catalyze connection. Residents become integral members of their community and can find meaningful ways to contribute their unique gifts and talents to it. CFAA creates an inclusive environment in which all people are appreciated, respected, and encouraged to grow.
