Park County Senior Citizens Corporation
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
The senior citizens of Park County, Montana, make up almost 25% of its total population, which is quite significant. For that reason, we thrive to provide a variety of services, programs and amenities relevant to meet the physical, intellectual and social needs of our senior citizens. We especially try to reach the senior citizens who live in isolation in this rural community.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
We want to provide more out of the building, community-based and active opportunities for our aging population in all locations, assess programmatic need and expand capacity to pilot programs, create programs that are relevant to the emerging generation of seniors, and expand opportunities for senior housing.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
We would like to develop more new programs to serve the senior population of Park County by expanding our volunteer base and investing more funds in our facility. More programs will also require remodeling and increased maintenance of our century-old building.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
The Park County Senior Citizen Corporation relies on revenue from our independent living apartments, from donations, and has a stable financial future. The community is aware of our work and financially supportive.
Our building is accessible, safe, attractive, inviting, and can be expanded and improved to provide more programs and host food services.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
We have several programs already in place such as the Foot Clinic, Free Tax-Aid, Movie Tuesday, Card Games, Crafts, Art Classes, Coffee with Friends, etc. but believe that many more programs are needed to satisfy the growing senior population of Park County.
Our building includes 25 apartments for low-income independent seniors. Since our building was a hotel almost 100 years ago, the apartments need regular maintenance provided by the licensed property manager, and several licensed contractors such plumbers, electricians, builders, etc.
