Older Adult Services

We envision a community in which older adults are valued for the wisdom and experience they possess, and for the contributions they have made and continue to make. We are proud to offer programs and services that encourage active older adults to engage in intrinsically meaningful activities; that support adult children of aging parents; and, that enable those older adults challenged by disability, illness or declining health to live in comfort and dignity.

Family Caregiver Support Program

Our Family Caregiver Support Program supports unpaid family and community caregivers of all backgrounds in King County with TCARE, an evidence-based tool designed to reduce caregiver stress. We work with caregivers to create individualized care plans that can include information and referral, classes, support groups, caregiver counseling, family consultations, limited respite care and financial assistance.
