The mission of Carquinez Village is to build and provide a community offering social connection, personal support services, and lifelong learning opportunities to older adults living in Benicia and Vallejo. We are dedicated to enhancing the ability of each of our Villagers to live joyful, independent, and fulfilling lives as they age in the comfort and safety of their own homes and communities. Our Villagers live with the peace of mind knowing that they can rely on their Village to be there when they need it most as they age safely in place.
