HomeAgain VR HomeAgain is a grassroots, membership-driven community made up of virtual tour guides and travelers

Hello HomeAgain friends! A year has gone by since our last Facebook announcement, and we decided it’s high time we post an update. Incredibly, we began building an app that would connect people virtually, about three months before the pandemic started. Over the past year, we have tested out our new program with hundreds of users in 20+ states and 6+ countries. Overall, our online community has resulted in thousands of hours of both one-on-one connection and group gatherings for people aged 8 - 102. Our app is still actively in development. Here is our new blurb and mission statement:

HomeAgain is a grassroots, membership-driven community made up of virtual tour guides and travelers who regularly connect with one another to build friendships and promote positive human connection. Our platform empowers its members to start a healthy habit by expanding their social community, learning new things, and offering their time and companionship to someone else. A series of shared virtual experiences, including travel destinations, museums, and wildlife, serve as icebreakers for conversation. We are a new kind of social platform that puts the focus back where it belongs: on the people.

More to come soon!

Hello Everyone,

To protect the health and safety of the people we serve, we have decided to temporarily suspend our in-person demo services in light of the evolving situation with COVID-19. We will miss seeing all of the wonderful residents until it's safe to resume our visits. Our thoughts go out to the people in isolation who aren't able to mingle in the community or have visitors due to the health risk.

Stay tuned for updates, as we have been working on an new program that we believe will bring great value to the communities we serve.

Our Mission

At HomeAgain VR Foundation, our goal is to bring virtual reality to seniors and people with limited mobility. This rapidly-developing technology presents wonderful new opportunities for our aging communities.

We've seen many people experience virtual reality for the first time and the reaction is often surprise or excitement. That excitement almost always doubles or triples if the person is seeing something they recognize, such as an old home or a destination they love.

For people who are unable to travel, it is now possible to revisit and explore those beloved locations without leaving the room. We strive to bring this experience to as many people as possible, and to help alleviate boredom, homesickness, and loneliness.
