Elderwerks Educational Services (EES) is a not-for-profit organization supporting older adults, seniors and families by providing information, referrals and guidance for senior living, care and support services. The organization offers a complimentary service that helps adults plan for their futures after their retirement, and in times of need.

“We are so excited to be able to bring our services to the Palatine area,” said Jennifer Prell, President of Elderwerks. “Assisting seniors with the choices that arise from deciding whether to ‘Age in Place’ or choosing assisted living facilities are important decisions that need to be educated ones.”
Complimentary aging classes and dementia screenings are also offered by EES. They are open Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. but will work outside of these hours, by appointment.

EES will be hosting an open house and tasting event on Tuesday, November 12 from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. This opening celebration will include tastings from D’Vine Wine and Gifts, bundt cakes from Nothing Bundt Cakes and treats from Fannie May. To register for the open house, please email events@elderwerks.org.
