Medicare plans change every year—but the signs start earlier than most people realize.

I put together a quick breakdown of what we’re watching for 2027:

We’re starting something new at the Senior Resource Center—and we need your help to make it meaningful.

We’re looking for volunteer facilitators to help lead a casual caregiver support group. This won’t be a formal or clinical setting—just a welcoming space where current and past caregivers can connect, share experiences, and support one another.

Caregiving can feel isolating, but it doesn’t have to be. A simple conversation with someone who understands can make all the difference.

If you have a heart for supporting others and are interested in facilitating (or want to learn more), please call 815-235-9777 or email [email protected].

Let’s build a space where caregivers feel seen, heard, and supported. 💙

We’re very lucky to have the Senior Resource Center here in town!

Not for Profit of the Year Honoree - Senior Resource Center

The Senior Resource Center stands apart because it offers not just services, but stability, safety, and hope. It is the trusted place families turn to in moments of uncertainty, and its work strengthens our entire region. Their staff and volunteers bring compassion, expertise, and a deep commitment to dignity and independence for every person they serve.
They made an extraordinary impact in 2025—helping residents save more than $1 million on prescription drug costs during Medicare Open Enrollment, filing 367 tax returns with over $200,000 in refunds, and supporting nearly 500 individuals in safely remaining in their homes through the Community Care Program. Their Adult Protective Services team investigated 245 reports to protect vulnerable adults, and Pretzel City Transit provided 43,393 rides to more than a thousand clients, ensuring access to medical care, groceries, and essential services.
Beyond these essential programs, they continue to listen to the community and respond with purpose. They expanded wellness and educational offerings—Chair Yoga, Better Balance classes, technology education, Lunch & Learns, book clubs, and creative workshops—helping older adults stay active, connected, and confident.

Congratulations to Amanda and the amazing staff at Senior Resource Center!
