Roseville Area Senior Program 1910 West County Road B • Roseville. MN 55113 Telephone: (612) 633-3997 Serving Arden Hills. Falcon Heights, Lauderdale. Little Canada. Maplewood, Roseville and Shoreview October 21, 1992 Joel Hanson City Administrator Little Canada City Hall 515 Little Canada Road Little Canada, MN 55117 Dear Joel, As Executive Director of the North Suburban Senior Council, Inc., cosponsor of the Roseville Area Senior Program, I am pleased to submit this proposal and information packet for your review and submission to the Little Canada City Council. As a designated community focal point, assigned by the Metropoplitan Council Area Agency on Aging, the Roseville Area Senior Program provides a comprehensive range of services and programs for senior citizens in this community. The enclosed packet includes detailed information about each program area, but I do want to point out that the Senior Program provides community -based services to residents in the school district area, extensive educational programming, as well as social and recreational activities. The Roseville Area Senior Program's mission is to provide quality services and programs to senior citizens. However, as with many organizations, we are faced with increased demand for services and programs while at the same time dealing with reductions from funding sources to meet the needs. As the population continues to "age in place" the demand for services and programs, especially those services which enable more frail seniors to live independently in their homes, will become greater. According to the 1990 census data, there are approximately 1,244 senior citizens 60 years of age and older living in Little Canada. Approximately 235 seniors from Little Canada either participate in the programs or utilize the services offered through the Roseville Area Senior Program. Page 41 North Suburban Senior Council.
