The premier resource for boomers, seniors, and providers. The Network: We work within the community to build a business-to-business network.

What We Do...

We provide a comprehensive community resource for boomers, older adults, individuals with disabilities, caregivers and service providers, to easily access information about retirement and aging. Retirement Connection is the preferred guide - we are the "official resource" for many organizations, including Washington County Disability, Aging & Veteran Services and Salem Hospital. Retirement Connection provides a gateway for professionals within the retirement industry to share and access information, announcements, job openings, networking and community events more effectively. Our guide, website, and networking opportunities offer providers a unique and affordable venue to promote their services and products. The Guide: Retirement Connection Guide is the most comprehensive local resource for those 50 & better, with hundreds of topics, comparison grids, educational articles and caregiver checklists. The Website: RetirementConnection.com contains 100+ topics of searchable listings of information organized by category, a news and events section,a job board, and a link to a printable guide and networking resources for professionals. This includes a monthly e-newsletter, calendar, networking meetings, quarterly events, and professional development. Simply put Retirement Connection is a complete package: Print, Website and Network providing resources for those 50 and better and the providers that serve them. Community involvement is an integral element in our success. In this five years, we have been awarded: Brookdale Senior Living - Compassionate Communication; Metropolitan Senior Network - Integrity Award, Care Award and Marketing Professional of the Year; and the Oregon Medical Case Management - Excellence in Case Management Advocacy Award. We maintain a very high 97% renewal rate with current advertisers not just because we're awesome, but because we find out if someone is a good fit on the front end.

We’re feeling inspired after an incredible day at the 2025 Walk to End Alzheimer’s! Our team showed up in full force to support the vision of a world without Alzheimer’s, and we weren’t alone. Over 2,400 walkers came together and helped raise more than $416,000 for Alzheimer’s care, support, and research. 💜 We walked, we laughed, we remembered, and we honored those we’ve lost and those still fighting.

You can still support our team and the Alzheimer’s Association by visiting our team page:

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎀

This year’s theme is “Every Story is Unique. Every Journey Matters.” Each person’s experience with breast cancer is different, filled with courage, strength, and hope. Whether you’re a survivor, a supporter, or remembering a loved one, your story has power. 💕

Let’s honor every journey by:
🌸 Encouraging regular screenings and early detection
🌸 Sharing stories that inspire hope and healing
🌸 Supporting research and community programs that make a difference
🌸 Standing together in compassion and solidarity

💬 Share your story or tag someone whose journey has inspired you.
Together, we remind the world that every voice deserves to be heard, and every journey deserves to be honored.

Elizabeth had a wonderful time at the 1st Annual Washington County Senior Fair yesterday! 🌟

The fair brought together seniors, families, and local resources all in one place—making it easier for our community to learn, connect, and discover the support available as we age. It was inspiring to see so many people come together to celebrate healthy aging and share valuable information.

We’re excited to be part of events like this that highlight the importance of resources, connection, and care for older adults in our community. 💙
