The Stockton Center on Successful Aging
The Stockton Center on Successful Aging (SCOSA) promotes research on aging and educational opportunities that foster intergenerational connections. We work to empower our students and the community to recognize and enhance quality of life as we age.
SCOSA responds to local, state, and national opportunities related to aging and older adults, with projects that serve individuals, families, professionals, and communities in our region.
SCOSA Events & Workshops
SCOSA offers a variety of events that are designed to enhance the quality of life
for older adults.
From engaging workshops and lectures to social gatherings and wellness activities,
SCOSA events cater to diverse interests and needs, ensuring that there's something
for everyone. Join us and discover the many benefits of active aging!

Voluntary donations to SCOSA supporting these programs are accepted. Such donations are not a fee and are not required. Any donations received will be used to develop and operate future programs.
