La Veta Village is an assisted living community in La Veta, Colorado, offering support for older adults who value independence but need assistance with daily activities. The community operates as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization with a local Board of Directors.
The residence features 16 private suites in a family-style setting housed in a remodeled historic cheese factory located just off Main Street in La Veta. The location places residents within walking distance of town shopping, cultural events, churches, restaurants, the library, gym, and other services. The community responds to a significant demographic need in the region, where nearly one-third of Huerfano County's residents are currently over 65, with projections indicating that within a few years 50% of residents will be over age 60.
La Veta Village is situated in the Spanish Peaks Country, a laid-back yet vibrant small town setting defined by natural beauty and history. The community emphasizes helping aging adults live healthier and more active lives while remaining engaged with their surroundings and able to contribute to the community.
The organization relies on volunteers and donors to provide services for seniors, reflecting its grassroots nonprofit model with a focus on informed decision-making by prospective residents and families.
