Positive Maturity |

Enhancing the lives of older adults through social services and civic engagement.

Get Involved!

Positive Maturity offers a range of volunteer and civic opportunities. Regardless of age or ability, you can make difference! Whether through volunteer services with the RSVP program or with stipend volunteer opportunities through the Senior Companion Program or Foster Grandparent Program, there is a place for you at Positive Maturity.

Need Assistance?

One of our primary missions at Positive Maturity is to help older adults live independently. Through our Shepherd Center at Don Hawkins and Geriatric Social Services Programs we provide hot meals, activities and assistance with navigating available resources and services.
