Elders Program

The Elders Program in Gakona, AK, is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for seniors through a variety of essential services and support. We focus on empowering our community's elderly population by providing caregiver training, case management, and access to durable medical equipment. Our program also offers consumer-directed personal care assistant services and respite care, ensuring seniors receive the attention they need. We prioritize health and safety by providing fall and injury prevention education, alongside valuable assistance navigating Medicare and Medicaid. Monthly initiatives, such as elder food boxes, teas, and potlucks, foster community connection while our transportation services enhance mobility for those in the Anchorage area. Through advocacy, resource assistance, and specialized training like mental health first aid, we strive to uplift and support every elder in our community, ensuring their voices are heard and their needs met.
