Senior Connections’ mission is to maximize independence for seniors through advocacy, information and services. Our services for older adults include meal delivery, in-home care and home repair, senior centers and classes and trips.

SUBSIDY FUNDING

Part of our funding comes from county, state and federal dollars. Additional funds are provided by corporations and foundations. Each of these sources has specific guidelines that may include county of residence, age, income or other requirements.

Please note: available program dollars change throughout the year. Please check back frequently to see what is currently available in the way of subsidized programs.

DEKALB COUNTY RESIDENTS 62 YEARS OR OLDER

• You may qualify for free or lower cost meals or in-home care services if you meet income guidelines.
• If you own your own home and meet income guidelines, you may qualify for subsidized home repairs.
• All services offered by Senior Connections are available through private pay for residents who do not qualify for subsidies.
• Private pay customers have no age restrictions, so services can be used to assist with home illnesses, recuperations, and other short or long-term situations.
