Healthy Aging Martha's Vineyard
Making Martha's Vineyard an Aging-Friendly Island
Healthy Aging Martha's Vineyard
Meets the needs of Martha's Vineyard elders and their families, so they are healthy, safe, valued, and respected as they live out their lives on the Vineyard
The Issue
The over-65 population on Martha’s Vineyard will grow exponentially over the next 30 years, 134% between 2010 and 2030, while the over-65 population in the U.S. grows only 81%, and in Massachusetts, only 61%.
There is a need to plan for ways to help this expanding population.

You can help by getting involved to make our Island an "aging-friendly place."
