IIA Giving

The Institute for Integrative Aging at Saint Joseph’s College is an innovative program aimed at providing rural older adults access to a creative, age-friendly, learning environment. At the same time, we are creating a student body and workforce that is well-equipped to support a rapidly growing aging population through intergenerational collaboration and mentorship. Through educational courses, social & spiritual enrichment activities, fitness & wellness programming, and a forthcoming 55+ active adult residential community, we are building a rich ecosystem that supports bi-directional learning, intergenerational connectivity, and generates a ‘sense of community’, with the goal to combat social isolation and loneliness.
