Orange Community Education & Recreation, through the Orange Senior Center, serves as the Office on Aging for the greater Orange School District. Referrals of licensed counselors, who can answer questions, provide in-home visits, access information and make referrals to other organizations as necessary, are a phone call away. Do you need applications for an RTA pass, HEAP or Handicapped Parking? Need to borrow medical equipment for short-term use? The Orange Senior Center is your resource. Call 216-831-8601 ext. 5700 for more information.
