Learn More About This Program

Adult Day Care can provide you with day services if you need help with daily tasks or have difficulty being alone. Services at a local adult day center may help you continue living at home instead of moving to a nursing home. If someone, such as a family member, is taking care of you, services at a local adult day center for at least 4 hours during the day may allow that caregiver to work or rest. The centers provide health and rehabilitation services. The specific services you get will be based on your needs.

How do I apply?

To find out how to apply for this program, please contact your local Area Agencies on Aging or call the Mississippi Department of Human Services, Division of Aging and Adult Services at 1-601-359-4929.
