Our Story

Originally known as the Office of Ombudsman for Park Ridge, the organization has evolved to provide essential housing solutions, counseling, and support services for older adults and individuals with disabilities, ensuring they can live with dignity and independence.

Impact

Each year, the Center of Concern delivers over 12,000 services, helping vulnerable populations overcome hardships and maintain their independence.
