NEXT Village SF is a neighborhood nonprofit providing services and support that empower members to live independently in their own homes as they age. Our volunteers and staff work together to enrich, enhance, and nourish the lives of seniors in our community. As a vibrant, growing network for aging adults in northeast San Francisco, NEXT Village SF is a connection you can count on. Everyday, we work to build caring communities that dignify aging and honor our desire to age in the place we call home.
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
NEXT Village SFs believe that when people feel respected and included, they can be more engaged, innovative and successful. We are committed to ensuring that our team, our members and our volunteers feel recognized, supported and heard. We encourage people of every race/ethnicity, belief, gender, sexual identity, disability, age, and culture to join in whatever capacity they desire and in return, to be respected and valued for their unique contributions to this community.
