Why Give to ACC?
Because we make a huge difference in the community by tackling the issues of aging head on. ACC has become one of the dynamic and responsive organizations for older adults in the region, but we rely on charitable contributions to make our services accessible to those who need it the most.
Each year, ACC helps thousands of older adults in Sacramento get healthcare, housing, transportation, and social services. In 2019, we kept them engaged with more than 2,700 class sessions and wellness workshops. We provided more than 30,000 rides and more than 29,000 days of long-term care. Our home visits have given hope and help to people who are homebound and living alone.
Not only do we provide these critical services, but we also help people understand what’s going on as they transition to the next stage of life.
ACC Maple Tree Village Assisted Living and Memory Care opened in January 2020. “MTV” is helping families navigate a critical transition in their loved one’s care. While it has been a difficult journey for many, they now have a path forward.
Award-winning ACC is known as one of the best places for older adults and their caregivers in the region. But we are not resting on our reputation. We are going to work harder for you and the community.
