About
Mystic Valley Elder Services is a non-profit agency which partners with elders, adults living with disabilities, and caregivers residing in Everett, Malden, Medford, Melrose, North Reading, Reading, Stoneham, Wakefield, Chelsea, Revere, and Winthrop. They are here to help you find what you need to live the way you want.
They work one-on-one with older adults (60+) and adults of all ages living with disabilities to connect you to services that support your health, wellbeing, and independence. They provide care management, coordinate services, and refer you to appropriate health care and home care providers. Many of the services provided are free or low-cost, depending upon your income.
Mystic Valley Elder Services also works to provide elders and adults living with disabilities with meaningful opportunities to engage with their community. They connect seniors and other adults to volunteer opportunities throughout our eight cities and towns, and they host a senior art exhibition and art workshop program once a year.
Additionally, they have twelve staff members who work directly in senior housing buildings around the community. They also work closely with lawmakers to advocate on behalf of seniors and senior programs in our area.
Since 1975, Mystic Valley Elder Services has been partnering with community members to ensure that everyone has access to the tools they need to live independently and with dignity in their own homes and communities. It’s what everyone deserves.
