About Us

The Cedars has been an integral part of the Portland, Maine community since 1929, but it’s our ability to adapt, grow and keep up with change that makes The Cedars Maine and Northern New England’s most comprehensive, non-profit senior community.

Originally founded as The Jewish Home for Aged, The Cedars now offers independent living, assisted living, assisted living memory care, rehabilitation, and skilled nursing care for older adults of all faiths and backgrounds on our beautiful, conveniently located 14-acre campus.
