Molina Healthcare, in partnership with The MolinaCares Accord, has awarded a $120,000 grant to Hebrew SeniorLife to support fitness and behavioral health programming at senior living communities in Brockton, Cambridge, and Medford.
The funding will support on-site services delivered through a place-based services model, which embeds care within residential and community settings to reduce barriers such as transportation and mobility challenges. The programs are designed to improve physical mobility, mental well-being, social connection, and overall quality of life.
Behavioral health programming will focus on reducing social isolation and building coping skills through group sessions addressing topics such as loss, uncertainty, and managing chronic illness. At Riverside Towers in Medford, the fitness program will engage residents in activities aimed at improving strength, balance, flexibility, cardiovascular health, and functional movement. The program also includes health education and opportunities for social engagement.
This grant marks Molina’s second major investment in the place-based services model at Hebrew SeniorLife. Previous grants totaling $300,000 supported an on-site wellness coordinator, community programming, and staff training to conduct resident risk assessments and identify clinical needs.
Hebrew SeniorLife emphasized the importance of this partnership in advancing its commitment to whole-person care. The organization stressed that supporting fitness and behavioral health programming helps residents stay active, connected, and supported.
Molina Healthcare highlighted the strategic value of the investment. According to Bill Graham, plan president for Molina Healthcare, “By removing barriers to care, we help older adults age with dignity and an improved quality of life.” The place-based services model addresses a critical gap in senior healthcare by bringing services directly to seniors rather than requiring them to travel to appointments or programs.
