Supporting dignity, connection and well-being in Rijeka, Croatia
A Caring Community Where Every Generation Matters
At Mirna Dolina, we believe that every older person deserves to be treated with kindness, dignity and respect. We are dedicated to a compassionate community where older adults and people who need additional support can experience meaningful connection, inclusion, understanding and a sense of belonging.
Welcome to Mirna Dolina
Mirna Dolina is a Croatian nonprofit association focused on the dignity, social inclusion and well-being of older adults and individuals requiring additional support.
Ageing is a natural and valuable part of life. Every older person brings a unique history, knowledge and perspective to the community.
Our approach is centred on people rather than statistics — meaningful communication, respectful relationships and practical cooperation.

How We Seek to Make a Difference
Because No One Should Feel Forgotten
“Growing older should not mean becoming invisible.”
A thoughtful conversation, a welcoming community and a respectful gesture can have lasting meaning in someone's life.
Supporting Older Adults Means Supporting Families Too
Families, neighbours, friends and carers all play important roles. We recognise the challenges that can come with ageing, reduced mobility, loneliness and changing needs — and through understanding, accessible information and cooperation we seek a more connected society.
