| Area Agency on Aging 1-B | (800) 852-7795 | Area Agency on Aging 1-B serves multiple counties in southeast Michigan, including Macomb County, where Shelby Township is. Seniors who need help should make this the first point of contact.

Fitness and wellness programs are tailored to the elderly and may include modified exercises for added safety.
