Resource Directory
A Message from the Board of Commissioners Dear Friends: Well, 2021 was another year of unique challenges, and we continue to redefine the “norm” as we maneuver to combat pandemic-related strains. But stay positive: We will get through this together! The Dauphin County commissioners are pleased to present to you the 2022 Dauphin County Resource Directory, a valuable guide of services and opportunities available to adults 50 and over, caregivers, and persons with disabilities. Perhaps more than ever, this handbook can be a reliable tool and resource for you. It is important that we all stay up-to-date on what is happening — and what is available — in our communities. We hope you find this guide to services and resources very handy. With information about adult daycare and home care services to volunteer opportunities and Medicare, this directory provides you a host of resources that can help improve your quality of life. Dauphin County’s Area Agency on Aging also offers a variety of resources and programs for adults age 60 and over, from one-on-one counseling services for Medicare enrollment and food vouchers to farmers markets, elder-abuse protection and investigation, and more. For more information about these programs, call the agency at (717) 780-6130 or visit www.DauphinCounty.org. In addition to these services, On-Line Publishers will host its annual 50plus EXPO in Dauphin County on April 28 at the Hershey Lodge. It’s another great opportunity to learn about programs in our area and to speak directly with service providers. Visit www.50plusexpopa.com or call (717) 285-1350 for more information. Let’s stay positive and keep enjoying life, even while we all are impacted by the pandemic. We want to help you live life healthy and to the fullest. May this guide bring you assistance in that journey.

Chad Saylor Vice Chairman
George P. Hartwick III Secretary
