💙💚 WCCOA IS HERE FOR OUR SENIOR COMMUNITY!
As Washington County begins recovering from the storm, we're working to reopen our doors and provide a welcoming place for our friends 60+, who may be without electricity or other necessities.
Our facility has power, and we're preparing to offer:
🔌 A place to charge phones and electronic devices
❄️ Air conditioning and a comfortable place to cool off
🍽️ A meal and drinking water
🥫 Shelf-stable emergency meals (MREs)
🧩 Activities, fellowship and a friendly place to spend some time
🏡 UNABLE TO LEAVE YOUR HOME?
If you are a senior in need of drinking water or emergency meals and cannot safely leave your home, please reach out. We will work to coordinate assistance and get these supplies to you as conditions and resources allow.
📱 Contact Director Kristin Martin at 850-326-6506.
☎️ IMPORTANT PHONE UPDATE
Our office phone lines are ringing, but we are currently unable to answer incoming calls. Please use the contact number above for WCCOA assistance.
🚨 NEED OTHER STORM-RELATED ASSISTANCE?
For downed trees, blocked roads, hazardous conditions, welfare concerns or other non-emergency storm-related needs, please contact the Washington County Sheriff's Office non-emergency line at 850-638-6111.
For immediate, life-threatening emergencies, always call 911.
WCCOA is working alongside our community partners to help connect our older adults with the resources they need during recovery.
💙 We're neighbors helping neighbors, and we want our senior community to know they're not forgotten.
