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.
Present in every moment
We answer every call with time to listen, whether you need help or just want to share your story.
Guides through change
We help you understand what you don’t know, turning overwhelming decisions into manageable next steps.
Celebrating the journey of life
We believe every stage of life has something to celebrate and new possibilities to discover.
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.
- Connection is essential. Everyone needs to be around people who see your value and believe in your possibilities.
- Purpose doesn’t retire. The seniors who thrive maintain a sense of meaning through volunteering, learning, or simply being a good friend.
- Small acts create profound change. Sometimes the most transformative thing we do is celebrate someone’s birthday when no one else remembers.
- Hope can be measured. Through partnerships and hands-on experience, we know that hopeful people live longer, healthier lives.

Voices from our community
I want to thank Silver Key for all that they do, and especially acknowledge my gratefulness to the V.E.T.S. program. It is a great encouragement to me.
With my mother and I both on a fixed monthly income, finances are pretty tight. Silver Key has been such a blessing to us. I’m grateful to the Silver Key staff who continue to be a great asset in our lives.
