The mission of Aging Services is to foster independence for Salt Lake County's older generations by providing a system of services that promotes overall independence. They provide assistance to the existing support network for the elderly population - family, friends, neighbors and other volunteers, churches and other community organizations. Aging Services provides information and assistance to older adults and their caregivers to assess their situation, determine their needs and, if need be, connect them with partner organizations to help meet those needs.
As the gap between available resources and the needs of seniors continues to grow, Aging Services believes the role of the volunteer is critically important. Volunteers must be 18 years old and are needed in a number of ways, including assisting frail or disabled Salt Lake County residents, transportation, or assisting with employment services, to name a few. Visit the website for more information or to be a volunteer.
Aging Services is a great volunteer site. The staff spends a lot of time and energy in keeping volunteers informed. I love spending time with my companion, especially knowing that I am making a difference in her life. - Ashley Pederson, Salt Lake City, UT

I have done my service at the Liberty Senior Center. The seniors and staff .members are always so sweet and willing to include me in things without even asking. Playing dominoes and other games with the senior population is fun and i get to know them better and make conversation. The staff helps when needed and they are always looking for help, I'm glad i found this center!
