In The News
We've been features in a number of newpaper and
magazine articles. We can't keep all the links up to date, but here is an overview.
Journal
of Light Construction.
We
authored a definitive article on remodeling for aging-in-place. A pdf of the article is available at their website--click on the red
text above to go there and then search for "Dickinson Aging".
Newsweek.
Our
focus on helping seniors caught the attention of this national publication for a feature on the changing face of retirement living. In the print edition there was a
photo of Dave (one of the founders) at one of our projects.
Boomer Advisor.
We've written articles on ktichen and bathroom remodling for this on-line publication.

Newsletter.
The National Association of Homeowners featured us in their CAPS newsletter
focusing on our unique focus on aging-in-place. This article has been
picked up and run in other publications.
The
Business Journal.
This
profile of the business ran in both the Puget Sound and the Portland
Business Journals and was picked up across the country. This link (click on title above) will

Additionally,
Sara Solovitch used us as a primary resource for her article which appeared in the San Jose Business Journal. This article was picked up and republished in many other journals, such as the Denver Edition which you can read here (you have to be a subscriber to read it in the original San Jose version.) "Aging in Place" sparks business opportunities.
And, co-founder David Dickinson
wrote an Op Ed piece for the Portland Business Journal in response to a rather gloomy editorial on caregiving written by one of the editors. The Golden Years can indeed be golden

excellent profile of the business and Brian Bartholomew, one of the
