Hillview Life Center
Hillview Life Center is proud to introduce a first-of-its-kind intergenerational program that brings children and older adults living with early to moderate neurocognitive disorders (NCDs) together through meaningful connections and engaging shared experiences. By bridging generations, this innovative program fosters a genuine sense of belonging and creates opportunities for participants of all ages to learn, grow, and thrive together.
At Hillview Life Center, we believe every person deserves opportunities to learn, contribute, connect, and thrive. Adult Programs is designed for individuals living with early-moderate stage neurocognitive disorders who benefit from engaging activities, meaningful relationships, and a supportive environment.
Rather than following a rigid schedule, participants choose how they spend their day through a variety of enriching experiences that promote independence, dignity, and overall well-being.

What sets us apart…
Intergenerational Experiences
Choice-Based Programming
Every participant has unique interests, strengths, and goals. Rather than following a one-size-fits-all schedule, participants choose from a variety of meaningful experiences throughout the day, allowing them to engage at their own pace and in ways that feel purposeful and enjoyable.
Hillview Life Center creates meaningful opportunities for adults and children to learn, create, and connect together. Shared activities foster friendships across generations, encourage joy and curiosity, and provide a unique sense of purpose through authentic relationships and community.
Community & Purpose
Whole-Person Wellness
Our programming is rooted in the International Council on Active Aging's Seven Dimensions of Wellness, supporting physical, intellectual, emotional, social, occupational, environmental, and spiritual well-being. Activities are thoughtfully designed to promote independence, confidence, and a high quality of life.
We believe everyone has something valuable to contribute. Participants are encouraged to share their talents, life experiences, and interests while building meaningful connections through collaborative projects, leadership opportunities, and activities that create a sense of belonging and purpose.
