Serving OUR Seniors … YOUR Neighbors
Coming soon, Senior Wellness Connection and Support Corps
In partnership with AmeriCorps and Volunteer Florida, Senior Resource Alliance is proud to announce the launch of our newly created AmeriCorps senior wellness program, Connection and Support Corps. This exciting new program has been designed to combat social isolation and loneliness felt by seniors and disabled adults. The goal is to improve the overall health of seniors through a variety of evidence based approaches by promoting mental, physical and emotional well-being thru social connections.
This program will utilize AmeriCorps volunteers (members) in collaboration with community partners across Central Orlando.
Senior Resource Alliance is a private non-profit corporation funded by the Federal Older Americans Act and State General Revenue through the Department of Elder Affairs (DOEA), serving senior residents 60 years old and older of Brevard, Orange, Osceola and Seminole Counties. Senior Resource Alliance serves as the designated Aging and Disability Resource Center for our four county planning and service area (PSA 7).
Senior Resource Alliance is not a direct provider of health or social services but rather the administrative agency for our area. The Agency collaborates with community-based service providers in the planning, coordination, development and evaluation of programs and services currently available for those residents who are 60 years old and older.

Call Our HelplineDepartment of Elder Affairs
Florida is home to nearly 5.2 million residents age 60 and older and currently ranks first in the nation for the 65+ populations. As our senior population continues to increase, Florida’s future is linked to the financial, health, and physical security of our elder population.
The Department of Elder Affairs provides most direct services through its Division of Statewide Community-Based Services, which, in Central Florida, works through Senior Resource Alliance and local service providers to deliver essential services to this vital segment of the population. The Department of Elder Affairs also directly administers a wide range of programs, ranging from the Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program, Office of Public and Professional Guardians, and Communities for a Lifetime to SHINE (Serving Health Insurance Needs of Elders) and CARES (Comprehensive Assessment and Review for Long-Term Care Services).
