Aging Services

Many elders suffer chronic medical problems that make daily living difficult and make finding help overwhelming.   Whether they live in urban centers or rural areas, the very real danger exists of these elders sinking into isolation, unable to care for their most basic needs.

Life Steps serves the specialized needs of the frail elderly, those diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, and those who, developmentally disabled and aging, are at risk of institutionalization.  Our cost-effective, long-term care alternatives for people who live at or near the poverty level provide a variety of health, therapeutic, rehabilitative and social services.   All our Aging Services projects allow participants to age in their homes and communities.
