  • About Us

    AgeUp leads the charge for dignity, justice, and well-being for older adults and people with disabilities across San Mateo County. Built on the trusted foundation of Ombudsman Services of San Mateo County, we've expanded our mission to create new pathways for education, support, and community connection. We champion the rights of long-term care residents through our certified Ombudsman Program, fight loneliness with Phone Buddies, Friendly Visitors, and Kindness Crew, and combat abuse and neglect with direct intervention. Through practical education, community events, and strategic partnerships, we're reimagining aging and disability services county-wide. Because at AgeUp, everyone deserves to thrive, not just survive.

    Many of our programs and services are facilitated by volunteers. Reach out at volunteer@age-up.org to explore the many meaningful ways you can make an impact.
