Authored by Wendy Ford, President/CEO

The Osceola Council on Aging and Osceola News-Gazette are collaborating to bring you the “Council’s Corner,” a monthly platform written by our President/CEO, Wendy Ford, to share the Council’s expansive services and programs which support low-income residents of the Osceola County community.

Our guest column will better educate readers on the Council’s latest news, happenings and events, as well as highlighting the many opportunities for local residents to become involved in supporting the most vulnerable residents of our community.
