Senior Centers

Each senior center is a gathering place for the wisdom, experience, insight, and skills that come with age. Every center is a vital, life-affirming space designed so that seniors can come together for services and activities that not only reflect their experiences and skills, but also meet their diverse needs and interests, while encouraging interaction with the community.

Enrichment programs include activities that promote Health and Wellness, Education and Culture, and Social Activities to keep seniors engaged with their peers while promoting overall self well being. Below is a program schedule at our centers. Please check other activities and events posted under Community Dining. Some of them are held prior to special luncheons and dinners.

Wellness Programs

Screenings and educational sessions are offered to help seniors make healthy lifestyle choices and take greater responsibility for their own health and wellness. Programs include lifetime fitness and exercise such as yoga, tai chi, line dancing and strength training; flu and pneumonia clinic; screenings such as vision, hearing, blood pressure, glaucoma and dementia; and health fairs and workshops.
