Join DC Villages Collaborative for our annual gathering as we celebrate connection, community, and the continued growth of the Village Movement across Washington, DC.

This year’s celebration has a special twist: we’re throwing a graduation! We’ll celebrate the “The Village Class of 2026” three new Villages completing DCVC’s incubator process and officially launching in Wards 5, 7, and 8:

• Nehemiah Intergenerational Village — Ward 7
• Village on the Avenue @ Pennsylvania Avenue Baptist Church — Ward 8
• Faith North Michigan Park Village — Ward 5

Come celebrate the leaders, older adults, volunteers, partners, and communities making this expansion possible – and learn how the growing Village network is helping more DC residents age with connection, dignity, purpose, and support in the communities they call home.

Please join us to cheer on the graduates, celebrate DC seniors, and help us build what’s next for the Village Movement!  To RSVP, please click here. If you have technical troubles with the RSVP form, please contact 202-773-0830. RSVPs are requested by Monday, September 14th.
