I'm looking for passport that helps senior citizens out with the supplies that they need like briefs,?

Answer 1

It sounds like you are looking for help with resources needed for a home-bound senior.

While the "Passport" program is not one I am familiar with, the folks that will know about this program or other possible sources for this kind of help are as close as your local Area Agency on Aging. These groups are one of the best kept secrets around for older Americans and their families who are seeking information on Medicare and care-giver questions. There is one serving every community of the United States. The folks there specialize in listening to the concerns of seniors and their families and truly know about benefits and programs available. If they don't know something, they will know the best place to go for the answer. .

The other thing to know is that Area Agencies on Aging often have services and connections to programs that can help family caregivers.

You can call toll-free 1-800-677-1116 to find how to contact the area agency on aging serving where you live.

After you get the phone number for your local Area Agency on Aging and make the call, ask for the staff that handles "Information and Assistance" or the "Family Caregiver" program.

If you do contact your local Area Agency on Aging and like the help that they give you, let your local county officials and your folks in Congress know. Or consider making a contribution to support their work. Area Agencies on Aging don't have big budgets-- and appropriations for the Older Americans Act, the legislation that makes this help possible-- have not increased significantly for about 25 years!

Hope this helps! Best wishes and Good luck!
