Life Is Good for SCs in SC!

The aging baby-boomers continue to make the plight of senior citizens, the "SCs" of the title, an important element in making communities attractive and livable for people of all ages. Whether you are nearing sixty yourself or caring for your parents or grandparents, knowing that the help you need is nearby makes all the difference in the world!

"No this isn't some sort of secret code – SC's (as in senior citizens) have plenty of reasons to enjoy life in SC. To highlight some of the special opportunities and programs for senior citizens, SCIway has developed a Senior Citizen Resource Guide.

The guide is organized by location and features links to senior activities, social centers, business groups, and helpful non-profit organizations. It also connects to the SC Access Database, a helpful directory of finding aging and disability resources.
Return to school and skip straight to the "senior" year! A little known state law provides tuition exemption for residents 60 and older to take classes at state colleges. Visit SCIway.net's guide to Senior Citizen Education to explore these opportunities.

Many organizations work to keep South Carolinians mobile. If you or someone you know needs help getting around your part of SC, there are many public and private SC senior transportation services available."
