Michael Phillips+FollowHow SC Thrive Changes Lives IRLSC Thrive isn’t just about paperwork—they’re literally changing lives for older adults in South Carolina. From helping people get SNAP and Medicare Savings Programs to hosting “Benefit Days” at the library, they make sure no one slips through the cracks. Real talk: they’ve helped thousands, and their team gets it because they’ve been there too. It’s not just about benefits, it’s about empathy and busting myths that keep people from getting help. Love seeing community heroes like this! #Safety #CommunityHeroes #SeniorSupport00Share
Guesmrjrj+FollowLoneliness Doesn’t Mean You're Alone 🤍After my husband passed, the silence in the house was deafening. I have kids and grandkids who love me, but the long hours of quiet made me feel invisible. One day, I joined a local community book club. I didn’t know anyone. I almost didn’t go. But that one small step changed everything. I made friends, shared stories, laughed again. If you're feeling alone, please know this: you’re not broken, and you’re not the only one. Sometimes healing starts with a hello. #SeniorSupport #YouAreNotAlone #Loneliness #CommunityMatters #MentalHealth91Share
edwardspeter+FollowLet's Talk Aging in Place & Care Needs!Did you know? By 2034, there will be more Americans over 65 than under 18. A recent study by Johns Hopkins highlights the urgent need to expand long-term care services so older adults can age comfortably at home. Without significant changes, many might struggle to stay independent. From costly services to a shortage of caregivers, the challenges are plenty. But with improved infrastructure and support, aging in place can become a reality. Let's push for better policies and support systems! 💪🏡 #AgingInPlace #LongTermCare #SeniorSupport #HealthcareReform #Health40Share
