Athol Council on Aging/Senior Center

Councils on Aging are the principal agencies of local government that serve older adults and disabled.  First authorized by special legislation in 1956, there are now over 347 Councils in the Commonwealth. The three core responsibilities of the Athol Council on Aging are:

To identify the needs of older adults along with the available resources with the community.

To educate the community at large in the challenges of aging and advocate for the needs of older adults.

To design, promote and put in place services that are needed and to coordinate the efforts of agencies which serve older adults.  

The Athol Council on Aging has a Brown Bag Distribution on the 3rd Wednesday of the month from 11:00 am – 11:30 am.
