The Stockton Center on Successful Aging
The Stockton Center on Successful Aging promotes research, education, and services to nurture the body, mind, and spirit of New Jersey's growing population of older adults.
SCOSA responds to local, state, and national needs and opportunities related to population
aging. We strive to encourage older adults to age successfully through engagement
with Stockton University, New Jersey's only member of the Age-friendly University
Global Network, and the southern New Jersey community.
SCOSA's Annual Successful Aging Festival is on Friday, May 9, in the Galloway Campus Center.
