About Silver Key

Real change happens when listening meets action

This is where isolation becomes connection, overwhelm becomes relief, and surviving becomes thriving.

For over 50 years, Silver Key has lived at the powerful intersection of listening and action. We’ve learned that the most meaningful support doesn’t start with assumptions about what someone needs – it starts with really listening to their story.

Every call we answer, every person who visits our campus, every senior we meet has something important to share. And when they do, we don’t just hear them – we help them take the next step forward.

Our promise

Our mission is to create connections that bring purpose, joy, independence, and practical support to the journey of aging. 

Our vision

A community where every elder feels seen, heard, and celebrated—where age brings new possibilities instead of limitations. 

How we do it

Our approach is built on four core principles that bring this philosophy to life.

1

Present in every moment

We answer every call with time to listen, whether you need help or just want to share your story.

2

Guides through change

We help you understand what you don’t know, turning overwhelming decisions into manageable next steps.

3

Celebrating the journey of life

We believe every stage of life has something to celebrate and new possibilities to discover.

4

Uncovering abundance

We help people see the resources, connections, and opportunities that actually exist in our community.

What we’ve learned over 50+ years

When Silver Key started in 1970, we thought we were providing services. We’ve discovered we’re actually fostering hope.
