Protecting Our Seniors: How PSEG Long Island Is Helping Older Adults Stay Safe, Informed, and Supported

As Long Islanders grow older, staying safe and connected becomes more important than ever. That’s why we’ve created Senior Connections — a free program dedicated to helping older adults across Long Island and the Rockaways stay informed, protected, and supported.

Whether it’s preparing for a storm, spotting a scam, or saving money through energy efficiency, Senior Connections provides trusted information delivered by PSEG Long Island experts in partnership with local libraries, senior centers, schools, and community-based organizations. The program is part of our broader commitment to supporting Long Island and the Rockaways through outreach and education, especially for those who need it most.

Helping Seniors Stay One Step Ahead

Many seniors face challenges navigating today’s fast-changing world of technology, energy choices, and utility services. Through Senior Connections, we’re meeting people where they are—both in person and virtually—with free educational seminars on topics that matter.

These presentations are tailored for small gatherings or larger audiences, and cover essential topics like:

Storm Preparedness – what to do before, during, and after a storm
Energy Efficiency – ways to save money while staying comfortable
Electric Safety – how to avoid hazards at home
Scam Prevention – how to recognize and stop fraud in its tracks
Financial Assistance – programs available to help manage energy bills

These free events are more than just presentations—they’re an opportunity for seniors to ask questions, connect with others, and take control of their safety and well-being.
