Resource Guide

The Senior Alliance Resource Directory is a searchable database that helps older adults, adults with disabilities, and family caregivers find local services and support across the Wayne County, Michigan region. As the Area Agency on Aging serving this area, The Senior Alliance is a trusted hub, and its directory consolidates a wide range of community resources in one easy-to-search place.

The directory points users to essential services such as meal delivery, in-home help, caregiving services, transportation, and health and wellness resources, along with seasonal supports like warming and cooling centers. For a caregiver, this kind of consolidated directory is invaluable: instead of cold-calling dozens of agencies, they can search by need and quickly identify the programs that fit their loved one’s situation. And because availability and eligibility change, The Senior Alliance backs the directory with live, human help.

This resource matters because the aging-services landscape is fragmented and hard to navigate, especially for families in crisis. A single, regional directory — maintained by the local Area Agency on Aging — cuts through that complexity. Caregivers who want guidance can speak with an Information & Assistance Specialist who will help them navigate options and answer questions. The Senior Alliance can be reached at 734-722-2830, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., or by email at info@thesenioralliance.org. For Wayne County families, it is a practical first stop for locating local support.
