Fayette Senior Services

Established in 1978, Fayette Senior Programs (FSS) provides life-improving programs for Fayette County seniors 50 years of age and older. In Peachtree City and Fayetteville, the group runs The Gathering Place and The Life Enrichment Center. FSS seeks to improve the quality of life for senior adults by giving them options for independent living. Seniors who meet eligibility conditions can take advantage of free or inexpensive services. FSS is an essential source for possibly life-saving treatments because it also offers transportation to doctor’s visits, dialysis sessions, and prescription collections.

​

Meals on Wheels helps housebound seniors in Fayette County preserve their comfort and independence by providing food delivery services and company. In order to provide comfort and company to individuals who are unable to leave their homes, FSS has been gathering and distributing pet food donations for Meals on Wheels customers’ pets since 2009. Seniors 50 and older can meet new people, revitalize their bodies, and feel powerful in the Life Enrichment Center’s friendly environment. Over 100 monthly events covering social, educational, recreational, entertainment, and fitness are available at the two Life Enrichment Centers, which are managed by Fayette Senior Services, to keep seniors engaged and active. The goal of these programs is to provide participants the skills they need to become stronger and more confident.
