Blog Lansing! - Communities that blog together stay together!
Greetings. My name is April and I am a Social Service Coordinator. What that means is that I work to locate programs and services that will assist senior citizens in remaining independently in their own homes for as long as possible. In the course of my career, I have found that many of our seniors have fallen between the cracks with all the changes to Medicare and various other programs. My goal is to reach out to seniors and empower them to take a more active and educated role in decisions that will effect their lives. I can assist with Medicare Part D enrollment, Medicaid programs, locate free or reduced transportation, tax breaks for senior homeowners and vehicle liscensing, grocery delivery services, telephone service discounts, assistive devices, reduced in-home cleaning services, and much much more.
