ABSTRACT The major purpose of this study was to determine the current services provided by religious institutions in supporting their oldest members. Individuals representing 34 institutions in one southwestern metropolitan area were surveyed to determine support provided in four categories. Spiritual/counseling programs were more likely to be regularly planned programs than material/financial assistance or physical/health services, which were more likely to be offered on an as-needed basis. Most of the churches reported access for persons with disabilities. Study results were used to develop a model and make recommendations illustrating the religious institution's role in providing eldercare and support.
