We count because YOU matter.

Our Bay County Residents 60 years and better deserve the best we have to offer.
Health and well-being are precious at any age.  Census data directs dollars to funding for Medicare, housing assistance, Meals on Wheels and other programs to keep those 60 years and better vibrant into their retirement years in Bay County.

That is why we count.

Census will be coming up in 2020.  All citizens will be asked to fill out the Census.  It is easy, confidential and takes just 10 minutes.
We will have dates and locations for those needing assistance.
Be watching the Wonderful Times and visiting our web page for ongoing information.
