Suffolk County Sets Dates for Senior Advocates

Senior advocates will be in Babylon Town 16 times throughout the late Spring and Summer. Locations include the Lindenhurst Memorial Library and the Rainbow Senior Center.

The Suffolk County Senior Advocates will be visiting multiple locations throughout the Town of Babylon to help answer senior citizens' questions and assist with government-related forms this Spring and Summer.

Suffolk County Legislator Lou D'Amaro, (D, North Babylon), recently announced the advocates will be visiting community centers through the Babylon Town to help the area's older residents with information gathering, completion of eligibility or recertification applications and referrals to appropriate community agencies.

“With the cold and unpredictable Winter weather behind us, it’s an ideal time for Suffolk County seniors to get out and visit with their local senior advocates to learn more about all of the critical programs that are available,” D’Amaro said in a release.
