A Message From the Publisher

You have an issue, a specific need, a project … maybe even just a

question. You know the resources are out there—they’re probably not

even that far away. But you don’t know how to find them.

Enter the 2015–16 Chester County Resource DIRECTORY for the Caregiver, Aging, and Disabled. This extensive source of information

connects you to an abundance of organizations, businesses, and

services for Chester Countians who are over age 50, who are caring for

a loved one, or who have disabilities.

We consider the Resource DIRECTORY “free, yet priceless.” Within

its hundreds of easy-to-read listings, you’ll find options for housing,

hospitals, veterans’ services, legal counsel, fitness, home improvements,

and more.

In addition to your many local resources, there are also state and

federal programs available that can provide assistance.

Plus, we include contact information for Chester County police

departments, post offices, and emergency services, as well as county,

state, and federal government phone numbers for your convenience.

The Resource DIRECTORY is available both in print and online

(at www.50plusSeniorNewsPA.com), so it’s accessible whenever and

wherever you need it.

We sincerely thank the Resource DIRECTORY’s sponsors and

advertisers. It is through their financial support and their dedication

to the Chester County community that we are able to bring the

Resource DIRECTORY for the Caregiver, Aging, and Disabled to you, our

neighbors.

Sincerely,

Donna K. Anderson, Publisher
