Assistance for Older Adults and Individuals with Physical and Sensory Disabilities
The Office of Aging and Disability Services, created in May 2003, is Chesterfield County’s leading resource for older adults and individuals with physical and sensory disabilities. The office serves residents of ages 50 and older, family members and caregivers. Chesterfield County recognizes that older adults offer a wealth of knowledge and experience and want to live active, independent lives.
In addition to providing resources such as the Resource Directory for Older Adults (English) (PDF) and the Resource Directory for Older Adults (Spanish) (PDF), Aging and Disability Services:
- Promotes and coordinate services for older adults, individuals with physical and sensory disabilities, and their caregivers through regular meetings with county Human Services departments, not-for-profit organizations and private businesses.
- Provides information and referrals to services and resources relating to issues of aging, caregiving, and physical or sensory disabilities.
- Provides information and resources to grandparents and other kin raising a child.
- Serves older adults who want to remain active, independent and vital contributors to their communities.
