Responsibilities

Appointed by the Board of Selectmen, the Council on Aging serves in an advisory capacity to the Department of Elder Services.  Elder Services provides programs, services, activities and transportation for all residents 60 years of age and older and serves as a resource for information to families, friends and neighbors who may find themselves caring for an older person.

Services & Support

The monthly newsletter, Central Times, provides current information about services, classes and other programs. Residents may request to have the newsletter mailed to their home. Information about programs and services can also be obtained at the reception desk at the Senior Center. Municipal funds, grants, donations and volunteer services all support the Department. This support enables us to provide programs at a reasonable cost or free of charge. Financial contributions to the Department of Elder Services may be received at 224 Central Street, Hingham MA 02360. We would like to thank everyone who makes a donation to the department and the Senior Center.

Everyone is welcome at the Senior Center located at 224 Central Street and your participation is encouraged.
