2021 BENEFICIARIES
Teller Senior Coalition
Now in its 25th year, the Teller Senior Coalition Mission Statement is to provide services to Teller County senior citizens to enable them to live full, active, and independent lives. Teller Senior Coalition is an organization that helps seniors in Teller County age in place. They provide transportation, deliver meals to homebound seniors, provide homemaker services to keep their homes clean, case management counseling to address their issues and can install grab bars to keep them safe. Many seniors live in Teller County without family nearby, so the Teller Senior Coalition often becomes an advocate for our seniors.
