Provide a summary of the project or program:
This project is for a facility or possibly multiple facilities to house the Senior Center and Council on Aging Administrative space to
provide meals, recreation, and wellness programs and other essential services for senior citizens. At the current stage of planning
the Pointe Coupee Council on Aging is considering new construction. The project will be located at the site of the Pointe Coupee Health Services District No.1, which is a political subdivision of both the Pointe Coupee
Parish Government. The proposed project site is on Memorial Blvd. in New Roads. Pointe Coupee Council on Aging will purchase the property from Point Coupee Health Services District, the cost is estimated to be about $175,000. Currently the Pointe Coupee Council on Aging is operating out of two buildings on the Pointe Coupee General Hospital campus, which are owned by the Pointe Coupee Health Service District No. 1. The current facilities are very old, with only one bathroom for seniors, and the buildings are in need of major renovation. It is determined that renovation is not feasible to meet the project goal, then new construction will be pursued or a combination of both renovation and new construction. New facilities will enable us to attract more seniors to participate in the overall wellness programs and services that we offer. The project scope is in the process of being developed, but at this point in the planning process, we are planning for site manager office, restrooms, dining room, wellness/activity room, kitchen, supply room, waiting
room, director's office, assistant director's office, reception area, bookkeeper's office, service coordinator's office, program
assistant's office, workers room, training room, storage/file room, meeting room. Pointe Coupee Health Services District has
agreed to fund additional operating costs after project is completed.

What is the entity's public purpose, sought to be achieved through the use of state monies?
The purpose of the Pointe Coupee Council on Aging is to improve the quality and availability of services for the citizens 60 years of age and older in Pointe Coupee Parish by simulating public interest and awareness of the issues affecting the aging citizens. We help maintain the nutritional, physical and emotional wellbeing of this population by providing these needed services. Wellness programs are essentinal to keeping the seniors healthy.
What are the goals and objectives for achieving such purpose?
Pointe Coupee Council on Aging's goal is to provide and coordinate services designed to assist parish elderly to continue living independently with dignity in their own home and community for as long as possible, delaying the need for long term facilities. The services we provide at a much lower cost to the taxpayers can prevent early institutionalization.
What is the proposed length of time estimated by the entity to accomplish the purpose?
1 year
