Older Adults and Service Providers Make A Difference

The leadership team of Seniors’ Council of Douglas County (SCDC) invites older adults and service providers to attend monthly meetings each first Thursday of the month that are held at various locations in Douglas County. The meetings, scheduled from 10 – 11:30 am, are free and open to the public. Monthly presentations cover a wide range of topics of interest to older adults including health, aging in place, and recreation. Each meeting includes time for announcements and community discussion.

The February SCDC meeting will address modifiable risk factors to stave off dementia. Eldercare will be the topic in March, Details and updates are posted on the SCDC website at www.douglas.co.us/community-services — search for Seniors’ Council.
