Mission Statement We are dedicated to the enrichment of the lives of older adults and their families by providing diverse programs, social services and volunteer opportunities. Age Out Loud! Give aging a new voice—one that reflects what today’s older adults have to say about aging. Shine a light on many important issues and trends that you, as an older adult are interested in and deal with. More than ever before, older Americans are working longer, trying new things, and engaging in their communities. We’re taking charge, striving for wellness, focusing on independence, and advocating for themselves and others. We expect to continue to live our lives to the fullest, and insist on changes that make that possible. What it means to age has changed, and Older Americans Month 2017 is a perfect opportunity to recognize and celebrate what getting older looks like today. Join us here at the Stoughton Area Senior Center and Age Out Loud!
Hello! My name is Erin Bleck and I am the new Full Time Case Manager for the City of Stoughton Senior Center. I received my Bachelor’s degree in 2012 from the University of Wisconsin- Whitewater with a major in Social Work. I completed my Master’s degree in 2013 at Loyola University, majoring in Social Work. My previous experience includes 4 years of case management working with frail older adults, adults with physical disabilities and adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities. I currently reside in Janesville with my husband, two children and our energetic German Shorthaired Pointer. I look forward to meeting and working with you all.
