Project Lifeline
Since 1984, older adults in the northwest suburbs of Chicago have turned to Bacoa for information, resource referrals and support to safely navigate their aging process. Each year, Bacoa’s professional team provides meaningful activities, counsel and a team-based approach to help older adults live an active life on their terms. Project Lifeline enables us to fulfill the needs of older residents in our area.
Our critical and well-respected services support older adults, caregivers and families.
These services include:
• Assistance navigating government benefits
• Socialization and activities for individuals with mild memory loss
• Daily meal delivery through our Meals with Wheels program
• Case management for vulnerable and isolated older adults
• Support groups for caregivers and persons with vision loss
We have recently added virtual programming to our list with topics ranging from music and art to history, cooking, fall prevention, conservation and, of course, games. Social programs like our Cuisine Club, Bacoa Bookworms and the Outsiders walking group have all been met with enthusiastic response.
Bacoa has seen a 41% increase in the need for services and programs in the past two years, and we have worked to respond to this growing number of requests.
To help meet the needs of older adults in our community, Bacoa has created Project Lifeline. This program enlists the assistance of organizations, businesses and foundations, and provides awareness of entities that support older adults. We invite you to participate with us in this life-changing opportunity.
