Senior Services of Southeastern Virginia is a private nonprofit organization that functions as the region's Area Agency on Aging, providing advocacy, education, information, and comprehensive services for seniors and their families. It serves older residents across Chesapeake, Franklin, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Virginia Beach, and Isle of Wight and Southampton counties in Virginia. Over its history, it has served more than two million meals, logged more than six million hours of senior volunteer service, and driven seniors more than 11 million miles, supporting independent living for thousands of seniors. Based in Norfolk, Virginia, the organization operates in the individual and family services sector, with a focus on aging services in its region. A notable development is the September 2023 announcement of the I-Ride Express, a transportation initiative that was planned to begin operations on October 1, 2023, expanding its mobility options for seniors. The organization has pursued partnerships and honors, such as a 2019 Aging Innovations Award for its Health Empowerment Program, illustrating its broader efforts to support aging in place.
