Jackson County Senior Center reopens after temporary closure

 Jackson County residents woke up Wednesday morning to locked doors at the Friends of Elders Senior Center. A note on the window read: As of January 10, 2018, F.O.E.C will be closed for good.

  The Senior Center will reopen Friday with their regular hours.  Friends Of Elder Citizens Executive Director Earnest Taylor said they will continue performing all of their normal tasks, but with Federal and State funding reduced, as well as a much lower than normal amount of donations, budgets cuts are still being explored. 

Taylor said any donations are appreciate and can be made to the corporate office at  P.O. Box 791 Palacios Tx., 77465 or at the Edna Senior Center at 1010 S. Wells.
