Council on Aging for Henderson County
The Council on Aging for Henderson County was formed by a group of concerned local community members who wanted to ensure that an agency existed that focused solely on the safety and well-being of the older adults in the Henderson County community. This was realized on May 9th, 1969 when the Council on Aging incorporated as a private, non-profit agency and started operations at the Southern Railway Company’s old passenger depot. Although originally designed as a “council of agencies” that brought together other organizations that provided services for older adults, it soon became evident that unaffiliated volunteers were willing to contribute money or time in aiding those handicapped as a result of infirmities attributed to aging. Starting with those volunteer contributions, and with the help of governmental funds from the several sources and organizations like the Land of Sky Regional Council and United Way, the Council on Aging began to grow and develop its own programs that provided services for the older adults in Henderson County. The first program the Council on Aging developed was the Visiting Nurse program, where nurses would visit homebound older adults unable to leave their homes to go visit the doctor. From this program, such things as a Visiting Committee, a Hearing Aid Program, and the development of the first nutrition site were done by the Council on Aging. In the fall of 1978, federal funds became available under the Older American’s Act to employ a director full-time to assist the Council in becoming the “Local Point on Aging” in Henderson County. This allowed the agency to take a larger role in providing services for the older adults in Henderson County. Beginning in 1981, the Council on Aging initiated a home-delivered meal program to supplement the Meals on Wheels program at the time run by the Department of Social Services. By 1996, the Council on Aging was awarded Block Grant money for home-delivered meals and had taken over the county wide delivery of the Meals on Wheels program and have provided the service to homebound older adults ever since! In 1998, the congregate meals program at the Sammy Williams Center was started, and has provided older adults 60 and above an opportunity to socialize and enjoy a hot meal every Monday through Friday ever since. The Partnership for Independent Living, established in 2005, is a partnership between the Council on Aging and the Department of Social Services where professional social workers and support staff who assist the older adults in Henderson County with remaining independent and living in their own homes for as long as possible by coordinating appropriate services within the community.

Project 2.0 Foundation
The Project 2.0 Foundation is committed to assisting veterans in their PTSD symptom management while enabling and training them for integration into the successful post-military life they desire. The Project 2.0 Foundation was formed in August 2019 after accidentally finding positive results in a group of Army special operations forces veterans who found they could better manage their PTSD symptoms by training for, and participating in, triathlons and other athletic events. With each other’s encouragement and support, their symptoms became more manageable with their focus on athletics, physical fitness, and proper nutrition as a mission, rather using recreational drugs and alcohol as a coping mechanism. Symptoms of depression decreased or were eliminated entirely. Once our veterans saw their personal success with PTSD symptom management, we heard a chorus of questions and requests for assistance in entrepreneurial opportunities and new (or continued) business education within the civilian world. With the consideration by members of the psychiatric field, we formed this foundation with the mission to bring our findings national and open our program to all veterans. We have gathered a group of psychologists, physical fitness trainers, licensed nutritionists and dieticians, and business leaders and founders in various industries to assist in our mission. The Project 2.0 Foundation program encompasses all aspects of post military life: mental, physical, and financial training and support. The objective for each member is to create a “NEW YOU 2.0” version of themselves, and to obtain the post-military life that they envision for themselves and their families.
