Answer to Question 2

Many of the agencies listed above could help with this, such as social security, department of mental health, and State Agency on Aging. Many churches have home-delivered meals, financial assistance programs, etc. Some areas have day care centers for the elderly, counseling centers for nutrition, medication use, etc. If any of these help offices exist in your area, make the students aware of them and have them included in this study.
