About Our Organization

On Chicago's South Side, where you live can determine how long you live. In Englewood, the average life expectancy is 68 years; more than a decade shorter than neighborhoods just miles away. That gap isn't an accident. It's the result of decades of disinvestment, limited access to healthcare and systems that weren't built with this community in mind.

The Center for Better Aging exists to close that gap.

Located at 63rd and Halsted, CBA is a first-of-its-kind healthcare hub dedicated to whole-person care for adults 50+ on the South Side. From primary and urgent care to geriatric mental health, physical therapy, fall risk prevention and social services, CBA brings everything older adults need to thrive under one roof. 


Backing the Center for Better Aging medical providers and caregivers is a team based in the community, providing the tools that make preventive and responsive care possible. Among their day-to-day tasks, they also recruit and train staff and promote community programs. The CBA team gives you a champion outside the doctor’s office, standing with you to maintain your best physical and emotional condition. The CBA team strives to resolve the persistent health issues of older adults on the South Side.
 
 
The work is urgent. The need is real. And the impact is measurable.
 
 
 

Fairways for Better Aging is one way we fund it.

On August 26, we're bringing together leaders, supporters and community champions at Harborside International Golf Center for an elevated day of golf, connection and purpose. Every ticket purchased, every sponsorship secured and every dollar raised goes directly back to the older adults who built this city, and who deserve to age well in it.

Your presence here is an investment. In today's community. In tomorrow's legacy. In the generation that showed up for us.
