Who We Are
|
Washtenaw County Senior Leaders, Inc. (WCSL), a nonprofit corporation, evolved from the largest and oldest senior services networking group started by volunteers in 2007 in Washtenaw County. Our members consist of individuals having or working in a business or non-profit organization which provides senior-related services for older adults and their families in and around our county. While our current membership stands close to 100 individuals, most monthly meetings have an average attendance of 35-50 members who gather once a month at various hosting locations within the Washtenaw County area.
The group is comprised of kind-hearted professionals from a variety of backgrounds and businesses who have an enjoyable time being together and helping one another. Unlike many other networking groups, we do not limit the amount of individuals who are in a particular niche; competition for business and referrals just isn't our style! Instead, we refer clients to the individual or business that best fits the specific needs and personality of the "senior-in-need". |
In the picture above at our 11/10/22 meeting, Dr. Ginny Creasman is presenting a general overview of VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System, our Veteran populations, VA social programming and wrap-around services, health care delivery and future landscape, and a few notes on the new history PACT Act.

We meet on the 2nd Thursday of every month from 8:30am to 10:00am. Please check under meetings to find the information for the upcoming month. Each month's meeting starts with an opportunity for our members to network, build important business relationships, and share client referrals with one another. We encourage members and guests to bring business cards and other promotional materials they may have to share with the group.
