Learning from Our Older Persons Through Regular Field Visits
At Ethel Foundation, we believe that the most meaningful insights come directly from the people we serve. Through our regular field visits to older persons participating in our programs, we create opportunities to listen, learn, and grow together. These conversations help us understand what is working, identify areas for improvement, and ensure that participants feel respected, heard, and valued.
