About Us
Since 1973, Senior Connections has served metropolitan Atlanta with programs and
services designed to help seniors "age in place" in the comfort of their own homes.
Originally known as DeKalb Community Council on Aging (DCCOA), the agency became
Senior Connections, Inc. in 1992 to respond to the needs of the growing senior population
in the greater metropolitan Atlanta area.
Who we serve:
Anyone age 60 or over is eligible for services, regardless of income level. Senior
Connections also offers services and information to help families cope with the
many dilemmas that can arise as parents, grandparents, friends, and loved ones "come
of age".
What we do:
Senior Connections offers a range of quality services provided by skilled professionals
and community volunteers.
- Meals on Wheels
- Home Repair
- In-Home Care
- Neighborhood Senior Centers
While those with the financial means to do so pay the full cost of services, there
are public funds, United Way grants, and private donations that help subsidize the
cost of services to those in need. Senior Connections never denies service due to
the inability to pay.
How we do it:
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Senior Connections relies on the community
for support. Funding for our programs comes from a variety of sources including
local, state and federal governments, grants and donations from foundations, businesses,
corporations, religious organizations and individuals. To contribute or learn more
