Ottawa County Senior Directory 

The Ottawa County Ttask force logoask Force on Aging published a focused resource guide in 2022 for seniors and their caregivers.  Thanks to the generous support of the Ottawa County Community Foundation, Ottawa County Job and Family Services, and local sponsors, the publication is designed to promote awareness about senior services available in our county.  

Ottawa County is home to the highest percentage of people over the age of 60 in the state of Ohio.  Given the aging population in the area, the Ottawa County Task Force on Aging looks to address aging-related issues to promote the safety and independence of seniors in our community.  Senior Directory located here.
