Senior Citizens United Community Services (SCUCS)



Chris Smith of Senior Citizens United of Camden County spoke to us on all of the services  provided by SCUCS. The most visible is the SenTran system of shuttle vehicles.

The mission of Senior Citizens United Community Services is to “enhance the quality of life, encourage independence and provide a safe and supportive living environment for older adults and adults with disabilities, especially those with the greatest socio-economic need.”

Their goal is to keep older adults and people with disabilities living independently and active in the community and prevent unnecessary institutionalization, by offering an array of services to address the needs of our consumers and provide support for their caregivers.

The Transit support is available from 10 - 2 and can be used for shopping, personal business and non-emergency medical trips. There are sites that provide meals and the transit vehicles can provide transportation to / from these centers.

These vehicles are also available off schedule for special group trips. We used hem for our trip to the Evergreens.

SCUCS offers day, overnight and extended excursions, including cruises, geared towards senior citizens.  However, everyone is eligible to travel with us!  By following the link below, you can browse our trip offerings, download the latest brochure or sign-up for their enewsletter.
