Review for Aging Forward (formerly Shepherd's Centers of America), Kansas City, MO, USA
Aging Forward stands out among nonprofits dedicated to aging populations through its core value of empowerment. Unlike other organizations that often focus solely on providing services or resources, Aging Forward actively engages older adults as co-creators of their aging experience. By fostering autonomy and encouraging meaningful participation in community initiatives, the organization redefines what it means to support aging populations. This innovative approach transforms older individuals from passive recipients to empowered leaders in their own lives and communities. Its unique model not only delivers impact but also builds lasting resilience, setting it apart in the field of nonprofit advocacy for aging.
