The Senior Resource Center of Douglas County (SRC) provides variety of resources for Seniors according to Executive Director Megan Poindexter. The SRC is a non profit that has served Seniors in Douglas since 1972. Megan explained that there are two categories of aging, healthy and unhealthy, and there are SRC resources for both. The transition to unhealthy aging can be sudden and can leave people scrambling to deal with the loss of income, mobility and health. So STC provides information on health insurance, living options, in-home care, support groups and transportation. Regardless of health status, Seniors need social engagement and SRC offers a variety of clubs, special events and life long learning opportunities. The county is the largest source of funding and SRC works with numerous partners. SRC services and activities are listed in Better Senior Living, a free newsletter.
