SourcePoint: Thrive after 55

Our friends at the Central Ohio Area Agency on Aging (COAAA) are encouraging older adults throughout to complete a community survey that has been mailed to randomly selected households across the region. 📝

The survey helps identify the needs, priorities, and concerns of older adults and caregivers, ensuring that local programs, services, and resources reflect the realities of aging in our communities. Responses will help guide future planning and investments that support older adults' health, independence, and quality of life.

👉If you receive a survey in the mail, please take a few minutes to complete and return it. Your voice plays an important role in shaping the future of aging services in Delaware County.

Over 50 SourcePointers had an exciting adventure at The Wilds, one of Ohio's favorite conservation spots. 🦏🦒🦬 The day was truly special, filled with fun explorations and efforts to support conservation.

Before their private tour aboard open-air safari vehicles, everyone enjoyed watching zipliners zoom through the sky, which was a real hit! Afterward, trip organizer Mary Ann Evans made sure the day ended on a sweet note with a stop at Tom's Ice Cream Bowl for delicious treats!🍨🍦

Who's hungry?🤤

What Is the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge Program? A lack of insurance coverage for weight loss medications has put some treatments out of reach for many older adults. A new Medicare program aims to improve access to GLP-1 drugs. Here's what to know.

Fifty-six SourcePoint travelers recently enjoyed an immersive guided tour of German Village and Columbus, just scratching the surface of all the area offers. Led by local guide Andy, the tour highlighted the area’s rich history, lasting legacy, and future vision.

The day concluded at Columbus' North Market Downtown, offering a sensory-rich experience with more than 30 small-business vendors to explore, each featuring cuisine that piqued everyone's interest. Many participants took treats home to enjoy later.

Special thanks to Trip Coordinator Mary Ann Evans for snapping these photos!

# DiscoverYourSourcePoint

One-third of Meals on Wheels clients with pets have sacrificed essentials, such as groceries and medicine, to care for their furry companions. SourcePoint is helping change that, one pet meal at a time. In 2025, we delivered over 9,000 pounds of pet food to help seniors care for the furry friends who mean so much to them… and that number continues to grow in 2026.
