Enhancing Lives Through Diverse Programs
Discover a diverse range of programs offered by The Village Chicago. From health and wellbeing to social connection, brain health to intergenerational activities, and work and purpose to volunteering, our programs cater to all aspects of your wellbeing.
Health & Wellbeing
Wellbeing is what makes it possible for us to live our best possible lives. The Village supports all aspects of wellbeing – social, emotional and physical. Our programs help people over 50 and their families to better understand, manage, and improve their health and wellbeing, increasing confidence in making informed and educated healthcare decisions.
Brain Health & Memory Loss
People with concerns about memory and cognition or reacting to a diagnosis can be overwhelmed by new emotions, questions, and decisions. We work with members and their families to prepare them for the dementia journey and help plan for the loved one’s care.
Social Connection
We offer fun and engaging social activities both in person and on Zoom where you can be part of a welcoming community and make friends. Our events are wide-ranging: discussion groups, exercise groups, games, book clubs, music, concerts, play readings, theater, movie groups, interesting speakers, and happy hours — 500+ events every year.
Uniting Generations
Our intergenerational programs provide unique opportunities for people of all ages to come together, share experiences, and learn from one another. Through cross-age interactions, we foster understanding, empathy, and a sense of community.
Volunteering & Purpose
Life can take many directions after age 50. Some 27% of Village members are working or actively seeking meaningful employment while others are retiring, caring for aging parents, or seeking purpose in new ways.
