Change the Quality of Life for Fellow San Franciscans!
We are looking for SF Bay area residents to join the Community Living Campaign Board of Directors. Join a diverse group of thoughtful, committed people who believe that engaged, healthy, and active older adults benefit all of our communities. Together, we are working toward a San Francisco where we can all live - and thrive - in our homes and neighborhoods we as grow older.
The Board meets monthly (currently via Zoom) and Board Members also contribute a few hours per month as part of a committee or in other areas that fit with their skills and interests.
Community Living Campaign is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive Board and workforce that is representative of the neighborhoods in which we work. Older adults, people with disabilities, Black and other people of color, LGBTQ+, and other potential Board Members who contribute to this diversity are strongly encouraged to apply.

Mission Statement
Community Living Campaign builds connections to help seniors and people with disabilities age and thrive in their own homes and communities.
Description
We work with San Francisco seniors and people with disabilities to increase the connections, resources, and support needed to age and thrive in their own homes and neighborhoods.
We organize free activities and programs like computer classes, healthy aging workshops, senior exercise groups, and grocery delivery. These activities offer practical support and teach valuable skills. But most importantly, they create opportunities for folks to make the friendships they need to age well at home.
Studies show that only 20% of what people need to age at home comes from formal services. The other 80% comes from friends, faith groups, and other community connections.
Meeting the needs of an aging population is a huge undertaking. So we also build coalitions, bringing together neighbors, community organizations, businesses, and City agencies to organize and advocate around issues that are too big for any of us to solve alone. Most recently, these have included the SF Tech Council and the Dignity Fund Coalition.
