Senior Center Overview:

As the hub of most nutrition and health promotion activities, Senior Centers provide a vital link for older adults looking to take charge of their health and remain independent and active in the community. Senior centers offer a range of programs including meal service, arts and crafts, continuing education, health promotion and disease prevention services, and transportation opportunities.


Senior Centers in Maryland are Reopening! 

Governor Hogan has directed the Maryland Department of Health (MDH) and the Maryland Department of Aging to encourage local jurisdictions to develop plans that allow all senior centers to reopen safely, with public health protocols in place. We recommend checking with your local Senior Center before visiting, as schedules may differ and many have protocols in place to ensure safe openings. 

Senior Centers​ provide a vital link for older adults looking to take charge of their health and remain independent and active in the community.  If you're not quite ready to visit a Senior Center, there are 16 Virtual Senior Centers you won't want to miss.
