Winter gets cold here in Connecticut – that’s why CCC started Caring Hearts, a special giving opportunity to provide people with disabilities and older adults with the essentials they need to stay warm. Any amount makes a difference! $100 can provide a warm coat and boots; $15 can cover a pair of non-slip, cozy slippers.

To contribute, visit https://ctcommunitycare.org/donate-form/. Under ‘My donation is for,’ select Live Home Support. We are so grateful for your generosity.

Meet Michelle. She’s a passionate disability rights advocate, serving on state commissions and advisory boards. She loves musical theater and spending time with family and friends. And she treasures yearly visits to Camp Harkness, a week-long summer camp for adults and children with disabilities.

When financial barriers threatened Michelle’s ability to go to camp this year, we helped her find the funds to attend – thanks to CCC’s Live Home Support fund and an additional grant.

During this season of giving and of thanks, please consider making a gift to our Live Home Support fund – your donations help enrich so many lives. https://ctcommunitycare.org/donate/

October is a beautiful time to explore our state – and the 2025 Age Well Across Connecticut list has some great suggestions! The Connecticut Age Well Collaborative, part of CCC, assembles this community-nominated list each year, celebrating places and programs that contribute to aging well. Check out the list at https://ctagewellcollaborative.org/acrossct/

Spotted at the Farmington Canal Trail — an Age Well Across CT sign! The trail is truly a local gem — a free, accessible place to walk, run, ride, or roll for communities across Connecticut. In the words of their nominator: "This trail has been a miracle for me and my children. One of my kids is a wheelchair user and having so many access points for walking along the Farmington Canal or in the beautiful woods of Connecticut has been such a gift!"
