What We're Learning

We are a learning organization and work to be smarter and more effective every year. We never lose sight of the reason we exist: to do the most possible good with the resources left to the community by Archibald G. Bush. Here we share the lessons we learn through our efforts, as well as the insights of our grantees and Fellows.

Community of Care
Bush Prize Case Study

Providing the services and resources so that rural, older residents can “age in place”—a practice that is more cost-effective than assisted living or long term care facilities—has been at the heart of Community of Care's (CoC) work for the past decade.
