(Warrenton, MO) As the need for assistance and support from the citizens of our local communities continue to grow, North East Community Action Corporations (NECAC) pledge to lead the efforts of helping those that are often times silent but seemingly need it the most was on display as they held their 2nd Annual Senior Support Fair earlier this Fall.
The Warren County NECAC staff invited business and support resources from throughout the county to set-up “shop” and show off their “wares” to the senior citizens of the local communities. Blood pressure testing, hearing tests and transportation solutions were just a few of the services on display and available to the attendees.

The fair was open to the public with door prizes given out every 30 minutes and lunch prepared and served by the NECAC staff.
At the conclusion of the fair the question was asked of NECAC “can you do this again for us?”. The response from Fair organizer & NECAC Warren County community services coordinator Jodi Leach “NECAC has been a foundation of social support since 1965; we will be back in 2011 to help in any way that we can.”
