.	Senior Services
Interfaith Community Services’ Senior Services are a community effort to enable frail, ill, or disabled persons to remain in their homes in a safe and healthy environment. The program recognizes that what older and disabled adults value most of all is their independence. Senior Services programs provide clients with a safety net, allowing them to feel connected to their community.
