PACE is a program that allows older adults who need nursing home care to continue living in their homes as long as possible. The National PACE Association (NPA) provides leadership and support for the growth, innovation, quality and success of the PACE model of care. Our vision is for the PACE model of care to be recognized among consumers, health care providers and government leaders as the most innovative, accessible, valuable and effective model of care promoting the highest level of independence for individuals with significant health care needs.
