Resources for Older Adult Living (ROAL)
Design and Custom CMS
2009
The Neighborhood Interfaith Movement, a community center in the Germantown area of Philadelphia, tasked gdloft to develop a site for their ROAL (Resources for Older Adult Living) service, a support center for the senior community and their caregivers. Previously, they maintained a 97 page PDF "phone book" to keep track of available resources, and hoped to translate this into an easily searchable and update-able website.
The site was designed with focus on the Directory, allowing a user to approach their search from many angles, including category, keywords, location, and basic alphabetical listings. Care was taken to develop the front end and CMS concurrently to tailor both the database and the user's experience with the searchable dirrectory. The resulting site provides a quick reference for the community and the staff fielding phone calls at ROAL.
