UR Community Cares launched the first of its community programs in 2019 with what is now known as Neighbors Helping Neighbors. Since then, we’ve expanded our programming in support of our mission: to keep older and disabled neighbors supported in their homes and active in their communities.
We know that maintaining independence for these neighbors also means reducing loneliness.
In 2023, we developed the Directory of Blind and Vision Impaired Services and Organizations, which is available in several formats: a 100-page large print edition in English, a 27-page print version in English, an online version, a 100-page print edition in English, and a 27-page version in English/Spanish or on a flash drive.
In 2023 we launched Cycling Without Age Manchester to provide access to events and parks for older and disabled adults to enjoy free recreation.
In 2024 we opened UR Community Tech Center, as a result of partnerships with the Town of Manchester.
