Senior Centers & Social · Connecticut · Free

NCOA's information on senior centers and the National Institute of Senior Centers. A starting point for caregivers needing to get the senior out of the house for adult day care or peer connection. Volunteer programs (AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP, Foster Grandparent, Senior Companion) include modest stipends in some cases. Intergenerational programs (volunteering with kids, mentoring) consistently improve mood and cognition in older adults. Free service; donations support but never gate access.
