Senior Center
Dwelling Place Senior Center is a day-center where senior citizens can come together for activities and services that will support their independence, reduce their isolation and loneliness, and enhance their dignity. This program provides seniors with counseling services, healthy meals, health promotion, transportation, and recreation services. The staff at Dwelling Place Senior Center focuses much of its efforts on wellness by offering nutrition, fitness and wellness programs. Nutritious meals are provided daily through Project KEEN (Keep the Elderly Eating Nutritiously). Health screenings, education and food pantry classes are also emphasized so that seniors receive healthy meals daily at the center and know what foods they should be eating at home. Seniors with high blood pressure are provided monthly blood pressure monitoring and those with diabetes learn how to prepare healthy meals in the cooking classes offered in our diabetes education classes. Additionally, seniors that come to Dwelling Place Senior Center participate in parties and holiday celebrations, field trips, games and literacy classes. All of the activities, including the daily meals shared together, enhance their independence and alleviate their loneliness. Dwelling Place Senior Center
