Senior Daily Activity Centers

For many seniors having a safe, pleasant, friendly place to spend one or more days per week is essential. Here they can visit with their friends, receive a good nutritious meal, have their medical vital signs monitored or just enjoy being away from their home for a while.

The map above indicates senior centers within the Thomas Jefferson Planning District. Local telephone directories and web-based resources were used in locating these facilities. A number of the centers are operated by JABA, with some offering adult day health care specifically. The table below lists these facilities.
