    Outreach

    The Program Supervisor at the center schedules visits to local senior housing and will go to an individual’s home to discuss the senior center and assist seniors in utilizing services.  The “Inreach” Program is where seniors from local housing are brought to the center to have a tour and learn about the programs and services they can access.

    Inclusion program

    Seniors who may need the assistance of someone while at the center but who can do activities of daily living are encouraged to participate through this program.  An assessment is done of each individual by the VNA, Inclusion program and Social Services.
