Tri-Town Community Action Agency Merges with the Dora C. Howard Center
Adult Day Care Facility Located in Greenville

  
Tri-Town Community Action Agency recently merged with the Dora C. Howard Center and is currently managing all services and activities therein. Through the Dora C. Howard Center, Tri-Town provides a comprehensive selection of day time health support and social programs in a secure facility. Staffing includes dedicated, trained, and caring professionals made up of RN's, CNA's, case managers, and activities coordinators.
  
The Center provides a wide array of services for seniors and disabled adults who suffer from diabetes, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, brain injuries, strokes, and other health issues. Salon and podiatry services are also offered, as well as daily activities. Adult Day Care services significantly improve the quality of life for seniors and their caregivers while allowing them to remain in the community.
  
The Dora Howard Center also works with Tri-Town's Senior Services/Disabled Adult program, which provides case management services for seniors and disabled adults and their families. The major goal of the program is to ensure seniors and disabled adults are provided with the support needed to keep them out of nursing homes and hospitals, while maintaining their ability to live in their own homes and in the least restrictive environment possible.
