Mission Statement
Located in the heart of the City, Curry Senior Center helps meet seniors' essential needs for health care, meals, housing, and social connections – right in their own neighborhood.
About This Cause
In the heart of the City, Curry Senior Center has been a leader and a lifeline to seniors for nearly 40 years. Right in their own neighborhood, seniors can easily access a wide range of integrated services through Curry, from health care to housing and everything in between: It is comprehensive care in a single setting. Through its unique partnerships and personal approach, Curry creates a welcoming environment for a diverse group of people. Here, seniors can feel comfortable choosing the services they individually need and remain confident that their right to self-determination is respected. A dedicated team of geriatric experts partners with them as needed to navigate the route to the most appropriate care. At the center of Curry is its primary health care clinic – easily the envy of anyone. For those who cannot leave home, Curry's medical staff even makes house calls – a kind of "high-touch" care that's virtually unheard of in today's high-tech world. Another central part of Curry's offerings is its homelike meals, which are served 365 days a year. And, just like at home, if someone is missing from the table, the absence is noticed. More than medicine or a meal site, Curry is a community – a place for those who long to belong. For individuals at a stage of life when isolation is all too common, Curry helps create social connections, so essential for healthy aging. Committed to serve all those who walk through its doors, Curry continues to tackle the complex challenges of aging undaunted. Each year, Curry offers services like these to 2,000 seniors in eight languages: • A primary health care clinic that sees patients by appointment, on a drop-in basis, or through house calls • Breakfast and lunch for seniors every day of the year and meal delivery for the homebound • Permanent housing for formerly homeless seniors • Case management and counseling to assist with housing, appointments, benefits, translations, recovery, life skills, and in-home support such as help with chores • Health education and social programs such as cultural events, walking groups, bingo, movie nights, and field trips
