Dearborn Senior Collaborative – Community Input

 

Hello! Check out what we are doing…

In November of 2023 the Parkville Living Center was able to respond to a Request for Proposal (RFP) from the Platte County Senior Fund, to provide senior social and wellness activities in Dearborn. In December, the following month, we were informed that we were awarded the grant. 

Since then we have been working towards a three-phased approach to senior services in Dearborn – A quick aside, I will be writing a short blog post about the amazing community that exists here in Dearborn, and how amazing it has been to be welcomed into this town. But back to the phases…

Phase 1 – Get senior activities back in place, as they were in September 2023.

Phase 2 – Hold Community Input Sessions to hear how Dearborn envisions senior services going forward. 

Phase 3 – Put in place what we can from the listening sessions, and build the things that need a little more time and planning.

We are now in Phase 3

Who is the Parkville Living Center and what does that have to do with the Dearborn Senior Collaborative?

The Parkville Living Center is the 501c3 nonprofit organization that was created back in 2020 to provide community services in Parkville. Since then we have grown a strong senior citizen following and have a lot of experience, resources, and are the provider of services for the Dearborn Senior Collaborative.
