Celebrating our 31st Anniversary

Everyday at the Johnson City Senior Center we celebrate the lives of our members believing that aging is not about time and body but place and relationships. We proudly serve over 3,000 members as a member and community supported senior center. We offer programming throughout the year, including but not limited to the following:

Health Services – Because the Johnson City Senior Center is a community focal point for services, members are able to receive information and education for a variety of health concerns. We provide programs that encourage preventive health care, health care services, nutritious hot meals and physical activity. We offer: Health Education classes, blood pressure and glucose screenings, exercise through Line Dancing, Tai-Chi and Yoga, daily nutrition program, health insurance counseling, TOPS – Take Off Pounds Sensibly, eye glass repair and checks, Senior Housing Fair, hearing screenings and immunizations.

Social Opportunities – The Johnson City Senior Center plays an important role in the lives of many of the elders of this community by fulfilling many of their social and emotional needs. We do this through holiday parties, travel, Bingo, knitting and crocheting, quilting, billiards, shuffleboard, card games and specialty craft classes. Intellectual needs are met through a variety of educational opportunities such as; college classes with Broome Community College, special interest lectures, Asset Protection Series, Stock Market Education, Computer Classes, Senior Defensive Driving, Guitar lessons, Oil and Watercolor Painting, Round Table Conversations with local politicians and Public Hearings.

Community Service -- As a visible symbol of society’s concern of older persons, the Johnson City Senior Center helps older persons deal with the changing aspects of their everyday lives. Our center supports the independence of our members and encourages their involvement in the community thereby enhancing their dignity and increasing the quality of their later years. We offer a variety of volunteer opportunities and community involvement: RSVP opportunities, volunteer opportunities within the senior center with over 14,000 hours of volunteer time to the center itself. At the senior center, our chorus, cooperative volunteer opportunities with Johnson City High School, tax preparation, voting site, Legal Aid will preparation, building use for other local non-profits and the Johnson City Holiday parade with doughnuts and hot chocolate for all participants, offer our members time to be involved in our center and their community.
