How many NORC programs exist today?
The first NORC program was launched in a moderate-income housing complex in New York City in 1986, with private philanthropic support. The success of this model led to public policies and legislation in both New York State (1995) and New York City (1999) to provide ongoing funding for NORC programs. Today, 54 NORC programs operate in housing developments and neighborhoods across the state in NORCs that are home to more than 50,000 seniors. Between 2001 and 2006, Congress awarded 43 earmarks, administered by the Administration on Aging, to support the development of NORC programs in communities in 25 different states.
