This global pandemic is frightening for all of us, but in particular for our seniors who are at the greatest risk. The Senior Center has been closed since March 12th to help protect our members from potential exposure. As cases in the state continue to grow, it is possible that the Center could be closed for an extended period of time resulting in prolonged social isolation that leads to loneliness and depression among the elderly. Our focus now is to make sure our members are safe and have food, medications and other basic necessities to survive this pandemic and stay safe in their homes, while trying to keep them virtually connected to reduce the risks of social isolation.
Together, as a community, we will overcome these difficult days
Please support our efforts to keep our seniors healthy and provide them with home delivered meals
and groceries during this pandemic.
We are all in this together!
