ACC Senior Services

What it reported doing in 2025

Community programs - enhancing the quality of life of elders and their caregivers is central to acc's community services. Renovated and opened in 2015, a 15,000 square foot community center located a mile from the care center is the site of acc's lifelong learning and wellness program (llwp), which supports and sustains the efforts of family caregivers, many of whom care for persons with alzheimer's disease and other dementias, physical disability, are no longer able to live independently, and are at risk of institutionalization. Even though acc operates an excellent nursing home, placement there is generally a last choice for care. Numerous studies find that stress and burnout can endanger family care arrangements compromising caregiver health, and exacerbating chronic illness. The llwp supports the commitment of families to sustain care giving by fostering wellness, providing information, and offering opportunities that are empowering. Acc's bridge to healthy families (initiated in 2008) and acc rides transportation services (initiated in 2003) are examples of the type of supportive services that acc provides to assure that a true continuum of long term services and support are available to older adults in the community we serve. Llwp services are provided at rates that are affordable for elders and instructor fees are fully covered by acc. In 2016, the senior community service and employment program, or "scsep", an older americans act program for sacramento county, was taken on through a contract with the national asian pacific center on aging. Through this, elders with low incomes who want to learn new job skills can receive job training and obtain work experience. The program has helped an average of 13-15 low-income job seekers annually find employment since 2017. Several awards recognizing program innovation, excellence, and multi-cultural programming have been received by acc from the administration for community living, american society on aging, aarp, pfizer, metlife, agency on aging area 4, and the national association of area agencies on aging. Llwp and rides program participants are close to 80% minority compared to the sacramento county minority population percentage of 37%. The acc rides program serves 30% white, 14% african american, 2% american indian, 42% asian, 11% hispanic, and 1% other races. Itnamerica recognized acc rides as a "trusted transportation partner" in California.
