SRA provides essential services such as housing, meal services, and Medicare assistance to seniors in the region. The need for these services is increasing, particularly within the Hispanic community, as more seniors are moving into multigenerational homes.
“For many grandparents, they want to come and join their families and be a part of extended families. We know that that’s very important for the Hispanic community,” Radka said.
SRA is equipped to assist the growing Hispanic senior population with staff and volunteers who speak Spanish and several other languages, ensuring accessible communication and support.
