Catholic Charities Senior & Caregiver Support Services, in partnership with the Schenectady County Department of Senior & Long Term Care, is providing hot, nutritious boxed-lunch meals to adults 60 years and older through a Grab & Go Curbside Lunch.  This is an alternative to congregate dining so that we can ensure everyone’s safety. We are offering this service at the Glenville Senior Center 5 days a week, Monday through Friday, from 11:30am to 12:15pm.  This program was offered at Our Lady of Fatima Church in Delanson, yet in-person dining services will resume on Monday, April 19. Space is limited and reservations are required.  The Jewish Community Center in Niskayuna also offers in-person dining on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

The Grab & Go Lunch allows for safe social distancing to protect against transmission of COVID-19, while continuing to provide healthy meals for Schenectady County’s older population. 

Join us for monthly workshops designed to educate family caregivers on various topics specific to their needs...Financial Fitness, Ombudsman advocates, and Eat Smart for Brain Health.  The programs are the first Wednesday of the month from 10:00 am to 11:30 am.  For more information on the programs and registration, click here.
