About This Organization

Headquartered at 16859 NE Cayson Street, Blountstown, FL 32424 ((850) 674-4163 / Toll-Free 1-800-391-6134, https://www.calhouncountyseniors.org), the Calhoun County Senior Citizens Association, Inc. (active Florida 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, Florida Sunbiz Document #740074, FEI/EIN 59-1945679, CMS NPI #1144510140, led by Executive Director Marilyn J. Russell) is Calhoun County's statutory Community Care for the Elderly (CCE, F.S. §§ 430.201–430.207), Alzheimer's Disease Initiative (ADI), and Home Care for the Elderly (HCE, F.S. §§ 430.601–430.608) Lead Agency under the Florida Department of Elder Affairs (DOEA) and Advantage Aging Solutions (Area Agency on Aging for North Florida — PSA 2). Because northern and western Calhoun County communities—including Altha (32421), Clarksville (32430), and Kinard (32449)—have zero (0) in-town assisted living or nursing home facilities, the Calhoun County Senior Citizens Association serves as the countywide non-institutional long-term care safety net enabling frail rural elders to age in place at home rather than entering an institution. Core state- and federally funded services include CCE in-home personal care aides (bathing, dressing, grooming, transfer assistance), homemaker and chore services, ADI in-home memory care respite for family caregivers of seniors with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias, HCE monthly basic cash subsidies and incontinence/medical supply reimbursements for live-in caregivers, Older Americans Act (OAA) Title III-C1 congregate noon lunches at the Blountstown Senior Center and Title III-C2 Home-Delivered Meals (Meals on Wheels), Emergency Home Energy Assistance for the Elderly (EHEAP age 60+ electric/propane bill relief), door-to-door wheelchair-accessible medical paratransit through Calhoun Transit (Calhoun County's designated Community Transportation Coordinator under F.S. Chapter 427), and Florida 701B comprehensive in-home assessments for the Statewide Medicaid Managed Care Long-Term Care (SMMC LTC) Waiver (acceptsMedicaid: true).
