Council on Aging

Mission Statement

The Council on Aging was established for the purpose of coordinating and carrying out programs designed to identify and meet the physical, mental and emotional needs of Lakeville Residents 60 and older. 

Once Identified, it is our responsibility to inform and help our elders and the community gain the understanding of these available services.  We do this while promoting independence and providing a safe, friendly environment. Funding to meet these needs is provided by the Town and through various grants and donations.  The Lakeville Senior Center provides various volunteer opportunities, numerous activities and a caring, welcoming setting to socialize and enjoy others company. We are your home away from home.
