Serving the Bay Area and Beyond
In Contra Costa, we started with just a few government grants, a single staff person, and a lot of determination. Now, nearly 50 years later, we have a team of 45, including trained volunteers with boots on the ground standing up for thousands of seniors in our region — Contra Costa, Solano, and Alameda Counties.
