Manchester Police to offer free senior outreach service

Manchester Police Department has announced it is now offering Senior Outreach Service. 

The program is free and is designed to support the safety, independence and well being of senior citizens and disabled residents in the local community. 

Through weekly wellness check-ins, participants receive an added layer of support and peace of mind. 

If the police department is unable to reach a participant, their designated emergency contact will be notified, and when necessary, an officer may conduct an in-person welfare check.

To be eligible for the program, participants must be residents of the City of Manchester, be 60 years of age or older and/or disabled and complete the participation form.

Signing up is easy. Complete the participation form online or print the form https://www.cityofmanchestertn.gov/…/senior_outreach… and bring it to the Manchester Police Department at 200 West Fort St.. Once your application is received, a member of the Manchester Police Department will contact you to schedule your introductory call and get you enrolled in the program.

If you have questions about the program, call Manchester Police Department at 931-728-2099. We look forward to serving our senior community and helping provide peace of mind for participants and their families.
