to the Aging and Disability Resource Center in January 2027

Douglas County, Wisconsin, announced on Nov. 13 that its Elder Benefit

Specialist program will move from Senior Connections, Inc. to the

Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) of Douglas County,

effective January 1, 2027.

The program serves residents over 60, helping them understand and

apply for Medicare, Social Security and other public benefits, and

assisting with applications and appeals. Its services are educational,

unbiased and confidential.

Douglas County already operates a Disability Benefit Specialist

program for residents ages 17.5 to 59. After the move, both benefit

specialist services will sit within the ADRC.

Until the transfer takes effect on January 1, 2027, the Elder Benefit

Specialist program continues to be provided by Senior Connections,

Inc.
