Riverstone Senior Life Services

What Riverstone Senior Life Services does

Riverstone Senior Life Services is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 1985 and headquartered at 99 Fort Washington Avenue in upper Manhattan, New York City, serving older adults across northern Manhattan and the Bronx. The organization operates five core programs: a Memory Center serving nearly 50 enrolled individuals, Caregiver Support assisting 25 or more caregivers per month, an Older Adult Center, Social Services supporting more than 1,000 clients annually, and Health Home services delivered in coordination with clinical partners. All first-line staff are bilingual in English and Spanish, reflecting the linguistic profile of the predominantly Latino older-adult population in its catchment area. The organization reaches more than 1,100 older adults annually through this integrated service model.

The organization's revenue model relies on a diversified mix of individual donations, foundation and corporate grants, government funding (notably NYC Department for the Aging contracting and Health Home reimbursement via Coordinated Behavioral Care), and community fundraising events such as the Community Engagement Breakfast. Institutional partnerships with Columbia University Irving Medical Center and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital provide clinical referral pathways, while the NYC DFTA relationship anchors senior-center programming. The 2025 celebration of the organization's 40th anniversary underscores four decades of continuous operation and embedded community trust. There is no indication of proprietary technology, digital platform, or AI-enabled service delivery; the operating model is labor-intensive and relationship-driven.
