Senior Centers
Senior centers are places where older adults can socialize, play games, share meals, exercise, use computers, express their creativity, and learn. They also help to connect participants with other services and programs. Some senior centers are stand-alone facilities while others are located in community centers that provide programs for all ages.
Many senior and community centers temporarily closed during the pandemic. Check the website or call to find out about the current status.
