A community of caring helping seniors live well.

Experienced support for older adults

Chicago Methodist Senior Services (CMSS) is a non-profit, non-sectarian organization, providing care, services, and programs to older adults across Chicagoland. We work on the northside of Chicago, and in the northern and western suburbs to help older adults thrive.

We are dedicated to helping every individual we serve live their best life possible. Guided by a commitment to dignity, agency, and kindness, we place older adults at the heart of everything we do.
