Community Programs

At Meadowlark, we’ve always believed in the power of community. That belief inspired our founding nearly 50 years ago, when a group of local citizens envisioned a not-for-profit retirement community rooted in service to the people of the Flint Hills region. That same spirit continues to guide our work—not only through exceptional care for our residents, but through our commitment to supporting health and wellness for people throughout the broader community.

Our Community Programs are free and open to the public - made possible through fundraising and generous community support. All three offerings are designed to be inclusive and impactful, offering education, exercise, emotional support, comradery, and personalized consultations to help navigate challenges. They serve not only individuals with diagnoses but also care partners and providers—creating a space for connection, empowerment, and support for living well throughout the journey.

We also want to be clear about something important: Although Meadowlark is known as a senior living community, our community programs are for adults of all ages. One of our foundational values is this: Aging is a natural process of human development—beginning at birth and continuing through death.

With this philosophy in mind, our programs aim to meet people where they are in their life journey, offering support at every age and stage of adulthood.
