Housing and nutrition are pillars of well-being. We offer quality, affordable housing across Minnesota and hot, nutritious meals in communities across the Twin Cities metropolitan area.
Healthy Aging & Community Health
Our community health workers provide in-home and in-community support to older adults and their caregivers throughout the Minneapolis area, helping them navigate health care systems and attend appointments.
Planning for the Future

Support for older adults and adults with disabilities to maintain independence whenever possible through care plans and support systems that prevent unnecessary guardianship and conservatorship. CESDM also provides guidance and training to case managers, Adult Protection Workers, and social workers.
