Our Mission


Our mission is to walk alongside seniors and their families with compassion, honesty, and heart as they transition into Senior Living. We are dedicated to helping each individual find a place where they feel safe, valued, and truly at home. Through personalized guidance and unwavering support, we strive to make the journey into senior living one of confidence, comfort, and peace of mind.

Meet Your Advocates

At Advocates for Senior Living, we believe that finding the right senior living community should feel empowering—not overwhelming. With a deep understanding of the emotional and practical challenges families face, we offer compassionate, personalized guidance every step of the way.

Whether you're just beginning to explore options or need urgent help finding Assisted Living or Memory Care, we take the time to truly listen—to your needs, values, and concerns—so we can help you find a place where your loved one feels safe, supported, and at home.

We can also help you (or your loved one) assess if is time to start considering Senior Living or if there are local services available to help you stay in your home longer.

We proudly assist in finding the right Independent Living, Assisted Living, or Memory Care community throughout Whatcom County and surrounding areas. Our support is always provided with integrity, kindness, and a heartfelt commitment to improving the lives of older adults and those who love them.

You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—we’re here to make it easier, warmer, and full of heart.

Let's Connect

 Questions we can answer…

  • There’s no one-size-fits-all answer, but some signs include increased difficulty with performing daily tasks, preparing healthy meals, isolation, safety concerns at home, or a need for more structured support. If you’re starting to wonder, we’re here to talk it through—without pressure.

  • Independent Living?

    Independent Living is a wonderful choice for active seniors who are ready to enjoy more freedom, connection, and ease in their daily lives. The vibrant communities we recommend offer comfortable, maintenance-free apartment living, delicious shared meals, engaging social activities, and a genuine sense of belonging—all surrounded by the natural beauty and welcoming spirit of Northwest Washington.

    Assisted Living?

    Assisted Living provides just the right balance of independence and support, personalized to meet each individual’s needs. Whether it’s help with daily routines, medication reminders, or simply having someone nearby for peace of mind, residents receive compassionate, respectful care in a warm and uplifting environment. It’s a place where seniors thrive—staying active, engaged, and well cared for every step of the way.

    Memory Care?

    Memory Care communities are thoughtfully designed for individuals living with dementia or cognitive decline. With highly trained staff, secure environments, and enriching programs that preserve dignity and spark joy, these communities provide a safe, loving space for residents and peace of mind for families. We work only with communities known for their exceptional care and heartfelt commitment to treating every resident with patience, respect, and compassion—so your loved one feels loved, and you feel confident in their care.

  • Costs vary depending on the type of care, location, and amenities offered. We help you explore options that fit your needs and your budget—always keeping your best interest at heart.

    Independent Living is where most people enter senior living, and for an all-inclusive community it can start in low $3000’s per month. (Depending on the size of the apartment, location and amenities.)

    Senior Living communities change their pricing occasionally. So we will verify pricing when you are ready to move-in.

  • Yes. We have different tiers of service to meet varying needs. We are happy to provide a free “needs assessment” to help you determine what the next steps should be so you can enjoy an improved quality of life.

  • We give you the tools to help you choose which communities are the best match for you. We provide a list of communities that may meet your needs and we can discuss the benefits of each community. We typically make a suggestion of 3 communities that we think will match your specific needs.

    Note: While we do try to vet each community for safety and cleanliness, we do not oversee the care that is given in those communities. So we do suggest having a care advisor continue to meet with you (or your loved one) so we can advocate for the care that you receive.

  • Yes. We can support you with fast, thoughtful guidance when a quick decision is needed—whether due to a pending hospital discharge, a change in care needs, or a sudden event.

    In most cases a week’s notice or more is ideal, but under emergency circumstances, some communities are able to work with our advocates to ensure a quick move-in.

  • We serve seniors and families in Whatcom County and surrounding communities in Northwest Washington. Not sure if we cover your area? Just ask!

  • Yes. While our main focus is helping families find the right senior living, we’re happy to connect you with trusted local resources, including veterans' services, financial planning, and legal support.

  • Simply reach out! We’ll set up a free consultation to learn more about your needs and walk you through next steps—at your pace, on your terms.

    Even if you aren’t ready to move now, we can talk about how to prepare for the future.
