The “Get Connected” program from SAMHSA provides comprehensive support services to enhance the well-being of older adults. Community engagement and support are crucial for empowering older adults to maintain their independence. This evidence-based program offers information and materials to help in understanding the issues associated with substance misuse and mental illness in older adults. All community members age 60 and above are welcome to attend this exclusive workshop. We also provide linkage between this population and County, State and National free resources available for older adults to utilize.
