A vital link in the service delivery network which older persons
may avail themselves of, senior centers are functioning as meal sites, screening
clinics, recreational centers, social service agency branch offices, mental
health counseling clinics, older worker employment agencies, volunteer
coordinating centers, and community meeting halls. The significance of senior
centers cannot be underestimated for they provide a sense of belonging, offer
the opportunity to meet old acquaintances and make new friends, and encourage
individuals to pursue activities of personal interest and involvement in the
community.
