Aging and Disability Resource Network

Everyone needs some help occasionally, and many people are unsure where to turn in times of need. With so many different agencies and their acronyms, it can be confusing to know who offers what services or how to start seeking what you need. Trying to determine eligibility can be frustrating enough to make some people give up and go without the assistance and services they truly need.  

Who Can Use the Aging and Disability Resource Network (ADRN)? 

Aging and Disability Resource Network (ADRN) services are available to Snohomish County residents aged 55 and older and adults with disabilities who are 18 and older. Caregivers, family members, and professional care providers can also use ADRN to receive information about community resources and available services.  

While ADRN staff members work closely with various local, state, and federal agencies, we aim to provide objective, unbiased, and confidential information to help clients make informed decisions about what programs and services are best for them.  

Our team is committed to racial equity and multicultural advocacy to meet the needs of our culturally diverse clients. To that end, our knowledgeable and caring staff members are available to assist in several languages, including the following: 

• English: 425.513.1900 and 800.422.2024 
• Spanish: Marines “Mary” Scaramazza at 425.290.1248

Beyond communicating in a client’s native language, Homage, and ADRN also foster cultural connections with others through programming in our Multicultural Senior Center.
