MENTAL HEALTH & WELLNESS

We are connected with Hull emergency personnel to address mental health emergencies for local seniors. If you or someone you know have concerns about the safety or wellbeing of a senior, contact the Council on Aging Outreach Coordinator during operating hours, or the Hull Police Department any time of day or night.  We can assist in connecting you or a loved one with mental health resources.
