The year was 1976, the place, Berkeley, California, where the senior population faced a growing, unmet need for health services. Enter a small group of Gray Panthers, whose members created an innovative solution—a milestone in elder care—the Over 60 Health Center.  

LifeLong has come a long way in 48 years and a lot has changed since 1976. But one thing has stayed the same: consistently meeting the needs of our patients. 

LifeLong is a safety-net provider of medical, dental, behavioral, and social services in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. We have primary care health centers, dental centers, dental vans, school-based health centers, a supportive housing program, mental health services, and immediate/urgent care centers, delivering quality and whole person health services for all ages.

We have established countless programs and outreach events to further deepen our roots in the community. Each year, we provide services to more than 56,000 underserved individuals, many with complex health conditions.

Help us celebrate turning another year older, another year to continue helping provide care for our community with care and compassion. Please consider giving a birthday gift today.
