Senior Resources Communications Toolkit

NCDHHS is always looking for ways to expand outreach and offer assistance to individuals balancing a limited income, including seniors 60+. With these goals in mind, the department has prepared a Senior Communications Campaign (updated for Spring 2023) with the goal of increasing outreach to seniors across the state and providing them with information about different benefits and resources (particularly FNS) that are available to them.

The campaign has finalized a number of materials that are now available for download and distribution. Feel free to utilize these materials (found directly below) for personal and/or organizational use.
