Shepherd's Center of the Northland

Shepherd's Center of the Northland is a community oriented; not-for-profit organization founded in 1990, affiliated with Shepherds Centers of America, a national association of more than 70 centers serving older adults across the United States. SCN is dedicated to promoting the physical, mental and social well-being of older adults and assisting them in maintaining their dignity, continued productivity and independence. Our mission is to Improve the quality of life of older adults in the Northland. We have identified two areas of need—one, is for a variety of Services that help older adults remain independent and retain their dignity. The second is for Enrichment; these are programs that allow older adults to share their many areas of expertise with others in the community and to also continue learning and growing themselves.

Shepherds Center of the Northland is a non-profit agency with IRS 501(C)(3) designation. We are funded through grants, individual and business donations, 60 supporting religious congregations, United Way, and fund raising events. We also have an Endowment Fund which will give us financial stability for long term operations and expansion. Donations to SCN are tax deductible.
