LIFE Program Expands to 14 New Counties in Pennsylvania

Many older Pennsylvanians wish to continue living in their homes and their communities for as long as economically and medically feasible; and Pennsylvania’s LIFE and Community HealthChoices programs enables participants remain in their own homes and communities and live happier, more productive, and more fulfilling lives.

The Wolf Administration recently announced a 14-county expansion of the Living Independence for the Elderly (LIFE) program, a long-term care program that helps seniors live in their homes and coordinates their health and personal needs. Through this expansion under the jurisdiction of the Department of Human Services (DHS), LIFE programs will be established in Bradford, Cameron, Carbon, Centre, Clearfield, Elk, Fulton, Jefferson, Monroe, Potter, Sullivan, Susquehanna, Tioga, and Wayne counties.
