About

The Goodwin Living Brain Health Team manages the StrongerMemory program. Together, they hope to reach 100,000 people who are living with cognitive changes and might benefit from the program. “I felt energized, and that surprised me,” said one participant. “I haven’t felt that energized about anything in quite a while.”

Goodwin Living has been redefining aging since 1967. With a solid reputation for providing options in senior living and healthcare, Goodwin Living is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing care with compassion, dignity and excellence along the aging journey. With multiple campus locations, an aging-at-home program and specialized Medicare-certified services such as home health, rehabilitation therapy and hospice, Goodwin Living also engages in philanthropic efforts. 

Thanks to the generosity of donors to the Goodwin Living Foundation, Goodwin Living provides additional benefits and programs to residents, team members, hospice patients and the greater Northern Virginia community. One standout program supports team members and their family members who wish to become U.S. citizens by providing them with grants to cover the application costs, plus tutoring from residents who help them prepare for their exams. Goodwin Living offers a guide for other organizations who wish to start similar programs for their employees.

Other notable offerings include internships, educational benefits for team members, music therapy for residents, end-of-life doula services for hospice patients and an innovative brain-health program. By engaging in basic activities for just 30 minutes a day, StrongerMemory has been proven to help those with mild cognitive impairment. Fully funded through the Goodwin Living Foundation, StrongerMemory is available at no cost to users, who can start their path to better brain health by downloading a workbook at StrongerMemory.org.

With generous support from donors, The Goodwin Living Foundation makes it possible for everyone to thrive as they age.
