Senior Centers
A Senior Center is a community center that serves Elders over the age of 50. They are locally funded but may also receive State and Federal grants. Some Senior Centers have a small membership fee which may be waived based on your income. The goal of Senior Centers nationwide is to enrich the lives of Elders over age 50.
Senior Centers provide:
- Meal and nutrition programs (ex: the Meals on Wheels Community Cafe)
- Health & Wellness programs
- Information on community resources
- Eligibility screening for Local, State & Federal assistance programs
- Assistance identifying employment or volunteer opportunities
- Limited transportation
The National Council on Aging reports Senior Centers are one of the most widely used services available to Elders in America.
