Shortly after the paper launched, Coastline Elderly Services, Inc. supplied additional grant funding to the project, which enabled the City of New Bedford to increase distribution, and Senior Scope became a regional publication. As of the November 2018 issue, Coastline took on the project in its entirety. The paper’s editorial vision continues, promoting health, wellness and independent aging.
Senior Scope is distributed in supermarkets, senior housing complexes, banks, libraries, Councils on Aging, and dozens of other locations throughout the South Coast as well as directly to seniors’ homes through Coastline’s Meals on Wheels program.
