Looking for support, services or connection as an older adult, or for someone you care about?

Whether you need help with transportation, in-home support, housing, meals or simply someone to talk to, resources are available to help you stay healthy, safe and independent.
Are you looking for resources for yourself or a loved one? Whether it’s employment services, mental health resources, food assistance, healthcare, housing, or another need, this page is your one-stop-search for available health and human services offered by Douglas County and its partners.
As our aging population grows, we want to better support the needs of our residents so that you can stay independent and thriving in Douglas County all the way into the golden years.
In 2023, you told us what you needed to age well in Douglas County. Four priorities emerged: housing, in-home services, access to information and transportation.
In 2024, we hit the road again with an update and to further understand what you think about proposed action steps within those priority areas, then discussed findings and actions steps during a Live Town Hall.
