SeniorsPlus is Western Maine’s designated Area Agency on Aging, providing Meals on Wheels and other critical services to older adults, adults with disabilities, and their caregivers in Androscoggin, Oxford, and Franklin counties. Annually, SeniorsPlus serves individuals and fields inquiries. Our mission is to enrich the lives of older people and adults with disabilities, their families and communities, and to support them to make informed choices. SeniorsPlus envisions a future where all older adults and individuals with disabilities are engaged and respected while living quality, independent lives in the communities of their choice. SeniorsPlus is regularly recognized on the list of Best Places to Work in ME. The organization has 125 employees, including part-time and remote employees, and 100 volunteers. SeniorsPlus is a private non-profit, 501(c)(3) corporation established in 1972 and governed by a Board of Directors. Our professional and dedicated staff offers a network of support, information, services, and resources for older people and adults with special needs and their families. SeniorsPlus strives to develop collaborative, innovative approaches to bring together person-centered care (providers partnering with elders and their families to identify needs/preferences), the “Thriving in Place” initiative, and an outcome of a healthcare system in which patients are more engaged in their decisions. In addition to being a critical source of information, resource-connecting, and education to people in Western Maine, we provide care coordination for home- and community-based services statewide (SeniorsPlus is contracted with the State to provide home care coordination across Maine). Company headquarters are in Lewiston, Maine, with satellite offices in Norway and Wilton.
