WEYMOUTH COUNCIL FOR THE AGING
Honorable Board of Selectmen Town Hall, Weymouth, Massachusetts
Gentlemen:
We are pleased to submit herewith the third annual report of the Weymouth Council for the Aging.
In an effort to learn at first hand what the needs and interests of our older citizens are, the Council prepared and mailed to all Weymouth residents 60 years of age or over a letter and questionnaire which we asked them to answer.
We were pleased with the response from which we have obtained a clearer picture of the varying circumstances and desires of our older population. 30% expressed no particular wants. Many praised services already being received from the Town, such as Old Age Assistance, Medical Aid to the Aged, the Visiting Nurse Association and the Senior Citizens Recreation Club. Others stressed the lack of adequate housing within their means, their hope for part-time employment, the lack of transportation facilities, and the need for counseling. With assistance from the United States Department of Health, Education and Welfare in tabulating and evaluating the returns, the Council will have a sound basis for working out its program for the coming year.
The Council has been pleased to observe and assist the formation of a Drop-In Center, called the Friendship Club, at the Old South Union Church in South Weymouth. It is hoped that other projects of this nature may be started in other parts of the Town.
At the time of the election, we prepared detailed directions concern- ing the use of the absentee ballot by those unable to get to the polls and these were distributed together with the necessary application blanks to all Nursing and Rest Homes in Weymouth.
Several members of the Council are cooperating with the efforts of the South Shore Federation of Church Councils and the United Church Women of Weymouth to provide more effective visiting among those who are shut-in.
The Council is encouraged by the growing awareness on the part of an increasing number of persons and groups within the Town that much can be done individually and collectively to promote a more favorable climate here for those of advancing years.
Respectfully submitted,
Weymouth Council for the Aging
