Washington Park Cares helps persons age 55 and older who live in the area to enjoy safer, healthier and more independent lives in their own homes. It is a "virtual retirement community". It offers its members preferred access to social and cultural activities, exercise opportunities and household and home maintenance services, as well as medical care and assisted living at home.
 
We now have over 130 members and another 250 on our list of interested people.
Membership is $100 per  year for  singles and $200 per  year for  households.
