Washoe County Senior Centers Serving More Despite Cutbacks
The number of seniors seeking services from Washoe County Senior Services increased 12 percent at the end of June over last year, even though there were cuts in hours and loss of staff at some facilities.
Washoe County Senior Services Director Grady Tarbutton says data shows 4,980 people received services this year, 16 short of its projected goal. The largest group served were those between ages 60-74 (54 %), followed by those ages 75-84 (31%).
Washoe County Senior Services had to reduce hours at the centers in Sparks, Sun Valley and Gerlach. Regular hours of operation are 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. weekdays. In addition, the three facilities will rely on volunteers to maintain services. The Reno Senior Center at Ninth and Wells will provide a full service information center. The Sparks center will rely on a AARP representative to assist with some information.
Seniors in need of assistance can call the Reno Senior Center 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., at (775) 328-2575.
