St. Mary’s Outreach Center serves seniors who live in poverty, helping them to maintain self-sufficiency and live independently with dignity. In addition to connecting seniors to social services, SMOC offers social opportunities to combat isolation. A 2012 study found that SMOC was only reaching about one-third of those eligible for its services. This Management Assistance Grant provided funds for SMOC’s leadership to develop a plan to increase the number of people served without compromising the quality and personal attention for which the center is known and respected.
