Senior 服务

Duplin County 服务 for the Aged began operating as a County Department in July, 1974, and the 营养 Program began in September, 1975.  These two programs consolidated into one department in January, 1979.  5月, 2007, Duplin County 服务 for the Aged and Duplin County Public Transportation were consolidated into one department. In October, 2015, the combined departments were separated to operate as independent departments.  June 8, 2023, the department name was renamed to Duplin County Senior 服务.

The primary objective of the agency is to serve as an advocate for persons sixty years of age and older to achieve a better quality of life.
