Senior Stewards Acting for the Environment

SSAFE harnesses the life experiences and talents of its members to shape a sustainable future and achieve carbon neutrality at SSAFE chapters by the year 2050. SSAFE chapter communities are senior living communities that provide independent living, usually with Life-plan or continuing care options such as assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing.

OUR MISSION

To address the climate crisis with the urgency it requires, SSAFE chapters educate and partner with their committees and administrations, with other chapters, and with other senior living communities to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 through:

advancing clean energy (energy-efficient and electrified buildings and vehicles);

promoting sustainable food systems, reducing and recycling waste, and protecting biodiversity (native plants and wildlife); and

advocating for local, state, and federal programs that repair, protect, and conserve the ecosystems without which life on earth cannot flourish.
