Trusted support for older adults in Marin, San Francisco and Sonoma counties

How are we different?
At A Course in Aging, we don’t just offer a single service. We provide guidance across the different stages of aging — from the first time your family considers help in the home to the point where a senior living community may be the right next step. Our promise is continuity, reassurance, and expertise at every stage.
Families hire A Course in Aging when the next best step for an aging parent is no longer clear, and they want one trusted advisor to help them move forward with confidence.
