When losses come your way in a short period of time it can be overwhelming. Don't go it alone. The East Brunswick Department on Aging is staffed with knowledgeable professionals eager to help you through the normal predicaments of aging as well as the more complicated issues. The Department provides an accessible system of services to seniors to help maintain their independence at home.
