Located in West Roxbury, the Senior Connections Program serves approximately 24 participants. The special components of this program are similar to those of the The Alternative Day Program, volunteer work, self-advocacy, art and music and community outings. The differences are the location, it is located in a “storefront” setting among community businesses, and the requirement that the participants be age 55 or older. The participants in this program are often retired from employment. They can walk out the door with staff and be in a local restaurant. They join in activities with other senior citizens at the local Senior Center, and volunteer at the Veteran’s Adminstration hospital and delivering Meals on Wheels.

The Senior Connections program offers nursing services, occupational and physical therapies and speech therapy as needs are identified for the participants. The hours are the same as for the Day Habilitation as a whole, Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.  For a tour or to make a referral, please contact Lisa Knox, Program Director at 781-762-4001 ext. 345.
