Senior Services for South Sound

Founded in 1973, Senior Services for South Sound has been dedicated to supporting seniors in our community for more than 50 years. Our mission is simple: Improving the quality of life for people as they age.

Our programs and services include Brighter Days Adult Day Program, Meals on Wheels, Senior Community Dining, Senior Transportation, Care Connection Caregiver Registry, Supportive Services, Health and Wellness Programs, Trips & Tours Program, Adult Learning, and Independent Living Programs.

The largest program we offer is our Senior Nutrition Program, provided in both Mason and Thurston counties. This program alone provides more than 130,000 meals each year to more than 1,500 individual seniors.

We are proud to provide dozens of activities at the Virgil Clarkson Lacey Senior Center and the Olympia Senior Center.

Please support us today and help us continue to provide essential services to  seniors in our community.
