AGE of Central Texas

To commemorate National Nonprofit Day, One Voice Central Texas has launched a campaign to explore what our community would look like if nonprofits disappeared for just one day.

Without AGE for just one day, 60+ older adults could be left without adult day health services leaving them without care and isolated while thier caregivers are left without crucial respite. We hope you will consider us or the other amazing aging service nonprofits in our community the next time you think about giving back!

Are you an older adult living with a chronic condition or a caregiver to someone who is? Join our 6-week series, "Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Conditions," and gain valuable strategies to enhance their quality of life and manage symptoms effectively. Learn how to cope with pain, support nutrition and movement, and communicate better with healthcare professionals.

This class is FREE but registration is required! Email [email protected] or call 512-458-6306 to register.
