Common Questions
The Commission on Aging administrative offices are located at 1200 W. Broadway Street in Three Rivers. We are open from 8:00a.m. to 4:00p.m., Monday through Friday, except for all government holidays.
The COA operates two senior centers, one in Three Rivers in the same building as the administrative offices and the other center is located in Sturgis in the Oaks Enrichment Center.
The Commission on Aging asks that a donation be made to help cover costs of the programs. No one will ever be turned away because of their inability to pay.
You must be 60 years of age or married to someone 60 years of age or older (for most programs you must be 60 years of age). Services are provided upon need, not on your ability to pay.
Please call the administrative office at (269) 279-8083 or (800) 641-9899.
Yes! Donations to the Commission on Aging are welcome. Any donations we receive help us help even more older adults living in St. Joseph County. You can donate to our general fund, or you can donate to a specific department or program, such as Meals on Wheels or Life Enrichment Activities. You can donate money in honor of a loved one. The COA also has on-going projects that need additional financial support.
