Senior Services of Southeastern Virginia
A private, nonprofit organization, Senior Services of Southeastern Virginia provides services for older residents in Chesapeake, Franklin, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Virginia Beach, and Isle of Wight and Southampton counties in Virginia. Entering our 49th year, Senior Services is the regional Area Agency on Aging, supporting and enriching the lives of seniors and their families through advocacy, education, information, and comprehensive services. Our mission is to "help seniors to live with choice and dignity in their communities." For nearly half a century, Senior Services has changed the lives of tens of thousands of the region’s seniors for the better. We’ve served over two million meals, contributed more than six million hours of senior volunteer services, driven seniors over 11 million miles, and helped thousands of seniors live in their homes independently as an alternative to nursing home care.
