Program Description:
Currently, Canaan Baptist Church of Christ is the sponsor and contractor for the Canaan Senior Service Center, which provides services and nutritional aid for the senior residents of the surrounding community.

Located in Harlem, the center has become an important organization in the community through its work with the senior citizens it serves and assists. Through the visionary leadership of Dr. Wyatt Tee Walker, the Canaan Senior Service Center began in 1972 with a one-day-per- week program totally funded and staffed by volunteers of Canaan Baptist Church.
Since September 1975, the center has continued to be sponsored by the church, with a monthly contribution, but is funded by the New York City Department for the Aging (DFTA) for personnel services, meals, rent, utilities, raw foods, and other expenses such as consultants and Title V senior program aides. Personnel funds are provided from four sources, DFTA, Title V, Eastern Seals and Angel Guardians for the Elderly.
Canaan Senior Service Center staff provides daily comprehensive services Monday through Friday from 9:00 am. to 5:00 pm. These services include case assistance, entitlements counseling, information, referrals, escort services, shopping assistance, transportation, telephone reassurance calls to the isolated and home bound, friendly visits to the sick and shut-in, and education and recreation for the daily participants.

Program Description:
Encore Community Services was founded in 1977, by Sr. Lillian McNamara, Sr. Elizabeth Hasselt and Fr. George Moore to provide food, socialization and support for the elderly of the Hell’s Kitchen and Broadway communities.

What started as a single community center in the basement of St. Malachy’s Church has since grown into a multipurpose, nonsectarian agency providing a comprehensive array of programs and services to elderly New Yorkers. Each year Encore provides over 400,000 meals; both on-site, at our senior center and delivered directly to our homebound members.
In addition to providing meals and social services to the elderly, Encore also operates the Encore 49 and Encore West Residences. The Encore 49 Residence provides an SRO-style supportive housing facility for formerly homeless seniors with special needs. In a safe, clean and caring environment, residents are provided with their own units, and a range of mental health services. The Encore West Residence provides 84 independent housing units for the very low-income elderly.
Encore strives to provide a safe and welcoming environment to any senior that may need us, from meals, to social services, to housing; Encore’s philosophy remains the same: “By nurturing, respecting and enabling, Encore hopes to improve the quality of life of older New Yorkers in need, in an approach that emanates from the core of Encore’s commitment: we believe that what we do comes from the heart and the heart is the center of all.”
Encore also reaches out to elderly who are homebound, who no longer are able to make the trip to a senior center, or who have little or no access to support services. By providing a comforting voice over the phone, or a friendly face who pays a visit, outreach efforts may enable a senior to remain at home and also assists with reinforcing independence.
The potential effect of this may be to lessen the chance of premature institutionalization, allowing the senior to remain “at home” with needed social supports.
- 1There is a sliding scale to offset the cost of the escorts.
Program Description:
Senior Companions are healthy older adults who volunteer to assist homebound or isolated fellow seniors live independently. Volunteers are matched with a client for regularly, weekly, scheduled companionship services.

Sponsored by Henry Street Settlement and funded by Americorps Seniors, the Senior Companion Program is available in all of New York City’s five boroughs.
- 1In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Senior Companion Program Volunteers are not currently conducting in-person companionship services for clients.

New York Foundation for Senior Citizens (NYFSC) is dedicated to helping New York’s seniors enjoy healthier, safer, more productive and dignified lives in their homes and communities and to help them avoid the need for premature institutionalization.

Established in 1968, NYFSC is the only non-profit, non-sectarian organization serving New York’s seniors in all five boroughs.
NYFSC continues to grow. From modest beginnings of one social worker and one bookkeeper, the organization now has more than 1,500 employees to address the needs of the City’s seniors. NYFSC manages 35 social service programs, in addition to more than 900 units of housing. This important work is made possible with the leadership of our Board and the amazing efforts of NYFSC’s staff.
NYFSC’s programs are funded by Federal, State, and City governments and by private contributions. Supporters are confident that NYFSC will continue to achieve the best outcomes for the seniors through its commitment to achieving results, keeping overhead low and carefully managing budgets.

Through its transportation services Hearts and Hands increases access to medical care, food, and opportunities for physical and social activity.
We accomplish this by providing transportation that meets the unique needs of older adults living in the suburban and rural areas of Erie and Niagara Counties. Volunteers use their personal vehicles to provide door through door escorted transportation for our care receivers.

Program Description:
In the mid-1970’s, the Syracuse community found that it needed to build a new school to serve the area and enrich its future. However, this project would potentially be disruptive to the neighborhood.

To overcome this, city leaders decided that establishing a community center near the school would resolve local conflicts and provide opportunities for growth.
Thus, in 1978, the Syracuse Northeast Community Center was introduced. Since then, it has provided an array of services to the residents and families of Syracuse’s northeast quadrant. The relationship between the Center and the community has paid continuous dividends as the SNCC follows its mission to serve the health, social, economic, recreational and crisis intervention needs of area residents.
SNCC’s senior programs are designed to help older adults stay active and live independently. SNCC has assisted seniors in maintaining autonomous control over their lives by providing direct services and social experiences in and outside of our neighborhood-based Community Center.
