About Us – Stamford Senior Center

About the Stamford Senior Center

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, non-sectarian organization established in 1996 to help serve the needs of Stamford’s older adult population by providing a safe, welcoming space where older adults can exercise their minds and bodies, build community and power connections. We are a proudly diverse community, and we welcome older adults from all walks of life! We are a designated focal point on aging issues for older adults and their family members, as designed by the Southwestern Connecticut Area Agency on Aging.
