How the Senior Services Directory got started – In the spring of 2002 while in the Henderson business license office I noticed a brochure with services for seniors in Henderson – I thought they were great services and some that my mother could use as well. When I researched government and non-profit organizations that offered services for seniors I found that none of them had an advertising budget. The next question was, “How do we let the seniors know they have these services available?” I had the vehicle and the ability to distribute the information and I could update it quarterly. That was the answer.

The Senior Services Directory is the heartbeat of the publication and the driving force throughout Nevada.
