Explore Senior Programs & Resources at County ASK

COUNTY – The Union County Board of County Commissioners invites seniors and caregivers to visit their local Aging Services Kiosk (ASK) during the month of November. The monthly event is an opportunity for residents to engage with experienced professionals and learn about valuable senior programs and resources that are available in Union County. Bilingual staff will be present on all designated dates in November to offer assistance in Spanish.

“Our ‘ASK’ events are designed to offer support and peace of mind to our senior community and their caregivers. We understand that seniors often have questions and can benefit from guidance during this stage of life. Our expert staff is here to provide that support in an easy and convenient way,” said Union County Commissioner Chairwoman Kimberly Palmieri-Mouded. “I welcome seniors and caregivers to attend the next ‘ASK’ event near them to learn how this program could benefit them or their loved ones.”

The Aging Services Kiosk is operated explicitly by the Division on Aging, a branch of the Union County Department of Human Services. It offers adults aged 60 and older, along with their caregivers, a friendly and convenient avenue to discover valuable programs and services and speak individually with a Division on Aging professional.

Staff at ASK locations can help older adults and caregivers connect with various services, including home-delivered meals, respite care, home care, adult day care, and support services for caregivers. Any Union County senior or caregiver can visit any ASK kiosk, regardless of their hometown. No appointment or pre-registration is needed. Below are some of the upcoming ASK events in November: Thursday, November 14, Cranford Public Library, 224 Walnut Avenue, Cranford, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Wednesday, November 20, Westfield Memorial Library, 550 East Broad St., Westfield, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.

“We are proud to support the Division on Aging in this popular program, which has already provided significant benefits for seniors over the years, and look forward to witnessing the positive impact it will continue to have on the senior community in the future,” said Union County Commissioner Vice-Chairwoman Lourdes Leon, Liaison to the Advisory Council on Aging.

For more information about the ASK events and any other services for seniors in Union County, contact the Division on Aging and Disability Resource Connection at 1888-280-8226 toll-free or visit online at ucnj.org/dhs/aging.
