Our Elderly Program Services
Multi-Purpose Community Action Agency has been providing services to elderly clients over the age of 60 since 1974. Programs are designed to improve the quality of life for the elderly and to help them maintain an independent life style for as long as possible.
Effective March 2020, our centers are closed due to the Pandemic and our desire to protect our seniors, staff and volunteers. We are still serving our seniors by either delivering meals or allowing our seniors that can drive to have contactless pick up of meals and activities. We also deliver activity sheets and puzzles, crafts, and information on health promotion and other resources to our seniors.
If you can volunteer to help us deliver meals and activities, please contact your local senior center. Staff are available to take calls.

Funding has been provided in the form of grants from the Title III program which was created from the Older Americans Act. Multi-Purpose operates three senior centers that are a resource for the rural communities we serve. The primary purpose of the senior center is to enhance the quality of life for older adults. The centers support the seniors in their efforts to keep active and preserve their independence by promoting wellness, personal fulfillment and self-esteem. We do this by offering a variety of services to seniors.
