Where community, connection, education and purpose thrive.
At Aging in Montclair (AIM), we know that life after 60 is a time of expansive possibility. Our programs are designed to provide the mutual support and communal experiences that enrich our lives as we age. We are committed to advocating for the needs of older adults in the Montclair area, developing better communication between residents and municipal leaders and agencies, and speaking out about positive aging models. We are proud to help the residents of our community discover purpose and meaning on their modern aging journeys.
Our history began in 2015, when a small group of long-term Montclair area residents met to talk about services for older residents of our area. Since then, we’ve built a strong organization that now includes over 700 members from Montclair and nearby towns. We participate in educational and social activities and join with other local organizations to advocate for the interests of older adults.
Come join us and see how vibrant life can be ~ at any age.

“AIM has connected me to others my age and given me the gift of new close friends, a rare treat these days.”
Since our founding in 2015, Aging in Montclair (AIM) has been the proud voice of older adults of Montclair and the surrounding communities. Our programs support and educate our 700+ members and provide social connections that are vital as we age. We invite adults age 60 and older to join.
