Senior Center Reopening Plan
We are excited to announce that, beginning July 6th, our centers will be open two days per week for in-person activities. Frozen meals will continue to be served through July. Each center will have specific days that they will be open for in-person activities and these days will vary by center. This is a phased plan, with many considerations in place that will support our centers in moving through each phase. We will continue to update you as we move through our reopening plan. Our goal is to be fully reopen by the end of the calendar year. Please click here to learn more information about our reopening plans.
