  • Mission

    Northampton Neighbors helps older adults in our community create and maintain connection, independence, dignity, and joy as we all age–and engage–in place.

    About Us

    It started with a conversation about Being Mortal - specifically, Atul Gawande’s transformational book on the inescapable realities of aging and living a good life to the end.

    With this in mind, Northampton Neighbors was founded to provide services and support for older adults in our community-everything from household help, errands, and tech assistance to rides and phone check-ins. In addition, we provide opportunities to connect and share through programs and events such as our Interest Groups, Speaker Series, talent shows, picnics, social get-togethers, and more.

    We pride ourselves on being resourceful and nimble: if there’s a request, we’ll do whatever we can to meet it through programs, services, or personal outreach.

    Northampton Neighbors is inclusive. Membership is 100% fee-free, and we welcome people of all ages from every corner of the community to participate in whatever ways are meaningful to them: to give, to receive, and to feel connected and fulfilled either way. Because isn’t that what a good life is all about?
