“Seniors are living longer, are healthier and like to live independently in their homes with the right supports,” Rios said. “The Middlesex County Freeholder Board and our entire county staff are dedicated to serving our residents by providing quality programs to help veterans and seniors continue to live well in the community and at home.”

Rios has already met with senior citizens in Carteret, East Brunswick, Sayreville, Perth Amboy and South Brunswick. Upcoming visits include Highland Park and Jamesburg.

For more information on the programs that are available, call the office of Aging and Disabled Services at 732-745-3295.
