The Council for Senior Citizens has just celebrated its 60th year serving older adults in Durham County. With seven senior centers, including the downtown Durham Center for Senior Life, the Council offers a wide array of programs and services for older adults.
Services include congregate meals, transportation, adult education, exercise classes, socialization, health promotion, caregiver support services, Senior Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP), information referrals, and case assistance. In addition, the Council operates the only Adult Day Health Center in Durham that provides a structured day program for older adults who may have some difficulty managing on their own because of frailty or the effects of disease.
Key Beliefs.
> Older adults are a growing valuable community resource and will be appreciated and respected.
> Older adults are entitled to quality services to maintain a healthy and active life.
> Older adults contribute a wealth of knowledge and skills; we will engage them to share their wisdom and experience.
> The Council believes in treating everyone fairly, respectfully and with the highest ethical standards.
