The mission of Healthy Aging Martha’s Vineyard is to create an aging-friendly Island meeting the needs of the rapidly growing 65+ population and those who care for them.
Healthy Aging Martha’s Vineyard is doing this by developing approaches and incubating programs that will improve services and facilities for Island elders. Through a community-wide planning process, Healthy Aging Martha’s Vineyard works to engage stakeholders, foster collaborative programs, and fill service gaps.
