Senior Advocates

Seniors are an especially vulnerable population and many require assistance in navigating and understanding important issues, such as Social Security, housing, health care, senior benefits, emergency assistance, pre-retirement counseling and elder abuse.

Senior Concerns’ Advocates assist thousands of seniors living on their own or with family members with such issues. Appointments are available by phone or over Zoom.
