Rensselaer County Unified Family Services Department Office for the Aging

The Rensselaer County Unified Family Services Department for the Aging has been in existence since 1973 (its predecessor, a model project, began in 1969) and serves the 26,521 residents of the County who are sixty (60) years of age and older. The primary goal of the Department is to provide a network of supportive and preventative services, which enable the County’s elderly to maintain themselves productively and independently within the community.
