Senior Citizen Task Force

History of the Task Force

Council reviewed and acted on an amended Administrative Resolution to establish a Senior Citizens Task Force, following input from the Commission on Aging, the Talbot County Health Department, and other partner agencies regarding addressing issues affecting homeless senior citizens. Council unanimously approved the amended resolution, paving the way for the task force to be created in their August 12th meeting. 

The task force will assess and recommend ways to improve services for homeless senior citizens, focusing on housing, transportation, health care and meals. Membership will include a broad coalition of community partners, including the Commission on Aging, Delmarva Community Services, Talbot Interfaith Shelter, Neighborhood Service Center, Talbot County Health Department Senior Care Program, Mobile Integrated Health Care Program, Mid-Shore Behavioral Health, the Town of Easton, and the County Council.
