Senior Center
Northampton Senior Services is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for Northampton’s older adults (ages 60 and over) with some programs and activities available to those 55-59 years of age.
Every older adult is a valued member of the community and has the right to a life of dignity while maintaining a maximum level of independence. To meet this goal, Northampton Senior Services identifies needs and provides a range of programs, activities and services to address those needs.
The Northampton Senior Center offers extensive programming for Northampton's older adults and older adults in the surrounding communities. (sourced from northamptonma.gov)
