Attention Shiawassee County Seniors and Families

Important Notice:
Temporary Covered Senior Hours Trial Run

The Shiawassee Council on Aging (SCOA), in partnership with Shiawassee Area Transportation Agency (SATA), is temporarily expanding its covered daily service hours to better serve our community.

Starting September 28, 2026 through November 20, 2026, the daily hours paid for by the Shiawassee Council on Aging for senior citizens (individuals aged 60 and above) through a specialized services grant are temporarily expanding:

SCOA is covering the cost to senior citizens for two additional hours each day to provide additional flexibility, support, and access to appointments and services. Our commitment to keeping our independent senior community safe, active, and supported remains our top priority.

If you have any questions about how this temporary shift impacts your specific services or activities, please contact the Shiawassee Council on Aging at 989-723-8875.
