How to apply for FIVCO Senior Center & Nutrition Services in Kentucky

Who it's for

Through the FIVCO Area Agency on Aging & Independent Living, Kentuckians 60 and older in Carter County can use Older Americans Act (Title III) aging services. These include county senior centers and nutrition sites with congregate and home-delivered meals, family-caregiver support, in-home services, and a no-cost Aging & Disability Resource Center (ADRC) for one-stop information and referral across the five-county FIVCO region (Boyd, Carter, Elliott, Greenup, Lawrence). 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 Carter County residency
