Our Aging Services

💙 Thank you, Jim Rowe, Kankakee County State’s Attorney, for hosting such a great Senior Fair yesterday. Your team did an amazing job!

I’m grateful for the opportunity to speak about the services we provide and the many community resources available to our seniors. When we come together like this, we strengthen safety, dignity, and quality of life for the people who helped build this community.

Events like today remind me why this work matters.

💙 Community, collaboration, and care.... that’s Kankakee County at its best.
