Gramatan Village 
Community Partner  Spotlight 
Gramatan Village members have access to our network of Community Partners, trusted local service providers.  Our staff determines whether a requested service can be handled by a volunteer of whether it requires the expertise of a professional service provider.  

This month we shine the spotlight on:
 
Cancer Center 
High Quality Care in 
Your Community 

The Cancer Center is a collaboration between Columbia University Medical Center  and NYP Lawrence.  A team of experts  provide comprehensive services right in our community.  

For more information:

*********************************

Gramatan Village engages community residents who want to remain in the home and neighborhood they love. We support aging-in-community with a network of volunteers, community partnerships and peer connections that enable members to stay independent, and fully engaged in the community. 

We look forward to seeing  you soon!
