We’re moving forward—together.
Northwestern Illinois Area Agency on Aging remains fully committed to creating a senior center in Rockford. Over the past year, our planning process has helped us better understand how to build something sustainable, accessible, and lasting for older adults and caregivers.
While details are still being finalized, our goal remains the same: a welcoming space that supports connection, learning, and wellness for our community. More updates to come as we continue this important work.
