Our Story
We are a nonprofit membership organization dedicated to connecting professionals and organizations in Lawrence and Douglas County, Kansas. Our mission is to foster a collaborative environment where aging-services providers can grow and support the community.
LAPA was established as a hub for professionals who care for older adults. We believe in building a network that is as strong as the community we serve, ensuring that every member has the resources and support they need to thrive.
Our impact is measured in the connections we make and the lives we touch. We are committed to being a trusted partner for healthcare providers, nonprofits, and businesses, helping them navigate the Lawrence area with confidence.
