The Eden Alternative is an international not-for-profit organization dedicated to transforming care environments into habitats for human beings that promote quality of life for all involved. It is a powerful tool for inspiring well-being for Elders and those who collaborate with them as care partners.

The Eden Alternative's principle-based philosophy empowers care partners to transform institutional approaches to care into the creation of a community where life is worth living. Led by our internationally-recognized founder, Dr. William Thomas, we apply our 20 years of experience to guiding organizations through the journey of culture change.

Our Vision: To eliminate loneliness, helplessness, and boredom.
Our Mission: Improving the lives of the Elder and their care partners by transforming the communities where they live and work.
Our Values: The Ten Principles.
