Our Programs
Art of Aging: Life Begins at Fifty
A free expo hosted by Partners in Aging and generous sponsors to help you explore your community all under one roof. Find where to get help when you need it and, more importantly, learn what programs and services are available to help you have fun!
Caregivers Luncheon
All too often anticipating the needs of an elderly parent or loved one is overwhelming. This Luncheon is intended to celebrate the selfless commitment that caregivers provide to their families and friends.
Operation Medicine Cabinet
This program ensures that unused medication will be disposed of by using high-temperature incineration, which has the least environmental impact of all disposal options. Remember to not flush your meds! Keep them in a safe place for our next collection day.
The Gratitude Award
The Dr. Wayland Marks Gratitude Award is given annually to a person who exemplifies the principle of advocating for the senior population.
Outstanding 1st Responder Award
The Outstanding 1st Responder Award is given to a first responder because of their extra efforts to protect this area’s senior citizens.
