Noble County Council on Aging was incorporated on July 12, 1977. With the mindset of helping enhance the lives of seniors in Noble County. The organization's first home was located on downtown Main Street in Kendallville where the organization had programming and activities for seniors and at the time only had one van for senior transport.

​

In 1997, the organization moved to 111 Cedar St. Kendallville. This location used to house McCray Memorial Hospital Offices before it was sold and then purchased for $90,000 by the Noble County Council on Aging. The move to the Cedar St. location allowed the organization to expand and allow new services which included a gathering space for seniors, educational classes, a recreation room, and travel tours. At this location Noble County Council on Aging and Noble Transit has grown and thrived over the years. The organization has grown and developed so much that it began looking for a new location for the senior center that would better fit the growing organization's needs.

In 2017, the former Max Platt Ford-Lincoln dealership located at the corner of Iddings and Main Street, Kendallville was donated to the Council on Aging. In July of 2019, ground finally broke at this location kicking off the first phase of the building project. Noble Transit's fleet of 21 vehicles were housed at the garage on Main Street while construction crews worked on the Main Office and Activity Center building.

 

In June of 2021, construction was completed in the main office at the Main Street building. The Cedar Street location was sold and Noble County Council on Aging officially moved to South Main Street in Kendallville. The Activity Center was officially completed in March of 2022 and hosted its first monthly carry-in in the Activity Center on March 16th, 2022. Since then Noble County Council has seen an exponential growth in Carry-In and other programming attendance. 

 

Noble County Council on Aging and Noble Transit truly feels blessed to be in their new location and look forward to expanding and growing their programs and services to fit the needs of Noble County.
