Counseling & Support Groups

The Center is an important gateway to services that many of us need as we age. We provide counseling, support groups and referrals to services like transportation and public benefit assistance.

Our professional staff social workers ensure our community’s most vulnerable seniors are safe, healthy and connected. Social workers are available on weekdays by phone and in-person with an appointment.

We also offer Westside Friends, an outreach program to connect older adults with ongoing companionship and practical help.
