Our Mission : To advance the health, independence and dignity of older adults by raising the standards for quality of care

Directors and Management

Led by a dedicated Board of Trustees, Benjamin Rose started by helping older people remain in their own homes. In the 1940s, the organization began providing residential care to those elderly unable to live in their own homes. In 1961, a research department was created to develop and evaluate services for older people and their families.
