Keiro continues to advance its mission in innovative ways through numerous collaborations with community organizations that share similar visions and already do great work to serve the older adults in our community. We find great value in collaborating to maximize our impact. Keiro deeply appreciates all of its partners – national senior services and health care organizations; universities and schools; veterans’ associations; religious institutions; and local community organizations – that work with us to transform the wellbeing of individuals, families, and our community.

Nikkei Senior Network
As part of strengthening community networks and collaboration, Keiro has convened leaders from our community partners since 2006 to share ideas and best practices to better serve older adults across Southern California. The shared knowledge strengthens community bonds to empower organization leaders to tackle various challenges relating to aging in our community, ranging from transportation, social connections, program planning, and more.
