Clayton County's seniors benefit from various resources aimed at enhancing their quality of life and supporting them when they need it. The following examples show how seniors can get fresh meals delivered to their homes, help if in dispute with their care provider and information on a number of state and federal benefits.
| Resource | Contact | Service |

| Clayton County Aging Program | (770) 603-4050 | The Clayton County Aging Program can assist Riverdale's seniors in several ways.
