Aging Well Association was established in 2021 as a direct response to the rapid decline that many older adults were facing due to loneliness and isolation stemming from the Covid 19 pandemic.
Our founder, Rolonza West MA, founded this organization with the desire to help elders engage with one another, while learning or improving their technology skills.
"The Covid-19 pandemic placed a spotlight on the vulnerabilities within the aging services community. Aging Well Association was created to address those concerns related to technology "
