Senior Program Participants:

Pacifica Senior Services is committed to providing essential services to ensure food security and isolation are addressed.  We will continue to do so as long as it remains safe for all.  Programs and services currently being provided include:

• “Grab and Go” lunches, Monday through Friday from 11:30am - 12:30pm for seniors 60+ years of age. You can drive to the east side parking lot and you don't even have to get out of your car!  

• Shopping Assistance for Seniors Homebound (SASH). This service pairs a SASH volunteer with a senior who cannot shop due to limited mobility, lacks in-home support or transportation.  For more information on the SASH program, please call 650-738-7353. 

• The Meals on Wheels program is for seniors homebound with severe medical conditions that have put them at nutrition risk.   

• If you need transportation, we are still funding the CaR program.  This program utilizes Serra Cab as our vendor and is considered an essential service.  Click here for an application.
• The purpose of the Virtual Programming page is to provide information, connect you to our community, and give ideas on how you can have fun at home while we shelter in place.   
• Join us for Virtual Bingo every Wednesday at 3pm on Zoom, and get your digital Bingo card here! Please call the Pacifica Senior Center at 650 738-7384 for the Meeting I.D. and password.
• The following resources are available for older adults.

Welcome!  Pacifica Senior Services is the community focal point for seniors' quality of life.  We are committed to providing services and programs for older adults including those with disabilities that maintain and enhance the quality of their lives, reduce isolation, and promote socialization.

 

                                      

A division of the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Department, Senior Services programs and services are provided at the Pacifica Community Center, which houses a multi-purpose Senior Center.

 

The Senior Center offers seniors, 60+ years of age, nutritious lunch programs (Congregate and Meals on Wheels), transportation in our 20-passenger wheelchair-lift equipped bus, information and referral services, more than 40 weekly classes and clubs, daily activities, entertainment and volunteer opportunities.  The "Golden Treasures Gift Shop" featuring homemade items and crafts is located in our Senior Lounge.
