Division of Senior Services

The Essex County Division of Senior Services, warmly serving the Newark, NJ area, is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for seniors and adults with physical disabilities through a comprehensive range of vital programs and services. As the primary hub for planning and coordination, we offer essential assistance including adult protective services, caregiver support, home-delivered meals, and transportation services. Our dedicated team ensures that those aged 60 and over receive the care they need, whether through health insurance counseling, legal services, or minor home repairs. We believe in empowering our clients through informed choices and offer access to the Aging and Disability Resource Connection (ADRC) for a full spectrum of long-term care options. Our mission is to create a welcoming environment where seniors can thrive with dignity and support in their communities.
