A Message From the Publisher

You have an issue, a specific need, a project … maybe even just a question. You know the resources are out there—they’re probably not even that far away. But you don’t know how to find them. Enter the 2015–16 Chester County Resource DIRECTORY for the Caregiver, Aging, and Disabled. This extensive source of information connects you to an abundance of organizations, businesses, and services for Chester Countians who are over age 50, who are caring for a loved one, or who have disabilities. We consider the Resource DIRECTORY “free, yet priceless.” Within its hundreds of easy-to-read listings, you’ll find options for housing, hospitals, veterans’ services, legal counsel, fitness, home improvements, and more. In addition to your many local resources, there are also state and federal programs available that can provide assistance. Plus, we include contact information for Chester County police departments, post offices, and emergency services, as well as county, state, and federal government phone numbers for your convenience. The Resource DIRECTORY is available both in print and online (at www.50plusSeniorNewsPA.com), so it’s accessible whenever and wherever you need it. We sincerely thank the Resource DIRECTORY’s sponsors and advertisers. It is through their financial support and their dedication to the Chester County community that we are able to bring the Resource DIRECTORY for the Caregiver, Aging, and Disabled to you, our neighbors. Sincerely,

Donna K. Anderson, Publisher
