HOW does the Village work?   Although the heart of the Village is its volunteers and members, the Village Concierge is the hub of much of the activity.  One phone call to the Concierge can link members to volunteers for rides to medical appointments,  healthcare advocacy, linkage to vetted and member-referred businesses and services and much more. A full calendar of activities, events and day trips keep members active and connected. And...don’t forget the long list of local business discounts.
