Older Adult Resources


Our county has many resources available for older adults and their families with concerns that often come up around maintaining safety, quality of life, and independence as well as and for as long as possible.

El Dorado county is one of the fastest growing counties in California, and over 30,000 folks here are over 65. This is double compared to 1989.

The Older Adults Task Force has been publishing a Resource Directory of available services since 1989. The 2007 edition has been distributed by the good folks at Elder Options on 82 Main Street in Placerville. Their phone number is 530-626-6939, and single copies are available free to older adults and their families.

You can have one mailed by calling, or pick one up at their office. All 31 pages of the directory are available at their website, and can be viewed or downloaded here.
