About Us

Our History

In 1972, as a result of a countywide committee, Services for Aging, Inc. was established as a private, non-profit agency to provide services to the senior residents of Huron County allowing them to remain independent as long as possible.  At the time of the incorporation, the Huron County Commissioners designated the agency to be the service providers for all county residents who were 60 years and older.  Over the years, the organization has served thousands of county residents through the variety of programs it offers.  Initially services were concentrated in areas for the homebound senior, but over the past decade, the services have expanded to encompass both the physical and mental well being of the older population.  All of our services, with the exception of our programs and trips, are provided on a “donation basis” because our services are based on need and not income.

For the first 6 months the agency was housed in the St. Parish House. After the fire destroyed the building in 1976, the agency received an offer from the county commissioners to use part of the Shady Lane complex.  Senior Enrichment Services is still there today.

But as services expanded and expenses increased, we applied and received monies from the state and federal aging departments as dictated under the Older Americans Act.  Unfortunately, this money did not supply enough revenue to meet the need of requested services of our senior population, so in 1995, the voters of Huron County passed a .4 mil operating levy.  In 2005, a .5 mil levy was passed.  This agency continues to receive donations from the private and public sector to support programs that assist the county seniors.

We have expended our programming to touch the lives of not only the older senior, but also the younger senior through innovative programming and a wide variety of services.  The volunteer board of trustees continues to move the agency forward to meet the changing needs of seniors.
