Senior Services Learning Center

If you are age 55 or older, there is a whole new world awaiting you at Clermont Senior Services Inc.

The mission of Clermont Senior Services Inc. is to improve the quality of life for older adults by providing a broad range of home and community-based services, enabling them to remain as active and independent as possible.

Toward that end, Clermont Seniors offers adult day services, caregiver support, care management, home care, home repair, Meals-on-Wheels, transportation and volunteer opportunities. One of the more popular offerings is the Lifelong Learning Center. Although there are seven centers located throughout Clermont County, the facility at Union Township’s Civic Center is one of the busiest and serves as the administration office for all the centers.

Following is a list of the classes offered at Union Township. These are from the winter catalogue, and since some of them are seasonal, they are not offered at this time. However, the catalogue is constantly being updated, and classes are always being added. This list is just to whet your appetite!
