One request is different than in years past, Miller said.

“Seniors are now coming to us for assistance with rent,” he said.

Miller has reasons to believe this is because of their casino spending.

An additional new situation, several generations are living under one roof.

“We are seeing three-generational homes,” he said. This is where grandparents, parents and children are all living in one home for financial and/or personal care reasons.
