Serving Seniors (formerly known as Senior Community Centers) is a nonprofit agency dedicated to helping seniors in poverty live healthy and fulfilling lives. Founded in 1970, the organization creates collaborative partnerships to support their “wellness model,” which provides nutrition, health, mental health, advocacy, transitional housing for homeless seniors and permanent supportive housing. This safety net of services keeps seniors out of emergency rooms, reduces hospital days and delays and/or eliminates the need for long-term care. The agency has been skillfully led for 20 years by Chief Executive Officer and President Paul Downey. Downey is also the immediate past-resident of the National Association of Nutrition and Aging Services Programs (NANASP) and is a commissioner for the California Commission on Aging.
