A MESSAGE FROM THE Area Agency on Aging

As we enter a new year full of possibilities, it is my pleasure to present this 2023 Senior Resource Guide. This resource guide is a collaboration between the Prince George’s County Department of Family Services, Aging and Disabilities Services Division and the Prince George’s Senior Provider Network. The Department of Family Services, Aging and Disabilities Services Division, also serves as the local Area Agency on Aging, whose mission is to provide services, information, and resources for older adults, caregivers, and families.

This Senior Resource Guide provides a list of resources to include County services from Health and Human Service agencies, businesses, and non-profits dedicated to serving older adults and their families. This is your source of information to help guide you to resources when you need services — including transportation, housing, and recreational information. The resource guide’s definition section is designed to help you better understand long-term care services terminology.

The Department of Family Services’ staff is also available to assist older adults, caregivers, and families. As the local Aging and Disability Resource Center, we want to provide you with the help you need. Our staff is willing to speak with you and answer questions that you may have regarding long-term care and the many options available. Please take advantage of this resource guide and if you need additional information, contact our office at 301-265-8450.

We hope that you find this Senior Resource Guide valuable and know that it is our charge to support you as you seek services and programs for yourself, family members, and friends.

Sincerely,

Karen H. Sylvester, Director Area Agency on Aging

Angela Alsobrooks County Executive
