Pro Seniors is a nonprofit organization that provides information, education, advice, advocacy and justice for older Ohioans at no charge. Pro Seniors’ experienced staff use their expertise to take a comprehensive approach to understanding and resolving the complex issues seniors face.

Ombudsman staff and volunteers ensure that residents know their rights, are treated with respect, and know how to advocate for quality care and services.
