How to apply for Barren River Senior Center & Nutrition Services

Who it's for

Through the Barren River Area Agency on Aging & Independent Living, Kentuckians 60 and older in Monroe County can use Older Americans Act (Title III) aging services. These include senior centers and congregate and home-delivered meals, the State Homecare Program (in-home support), family-caregiver support, SHIP benefits counseling, the long-term-care ombudsman, Veteran-Directed services, and a no-cost Aging & Disability Resource Center (ADRC) for one-stop information and referral across the ten-county Barren River region (Allen, Barren, Butler, Edmonson, Hart, Logan, Metcalfe, Monroe, Simpson, Warren). Most services have no income test; a voluntary donation may be requested but services are not denied for inability to pay.

What you'll need

• Proof of age 60+ (driver's license, state ID, or birth certificate)
• Proof of Monroe County residency
