Catch a ride. Stay Connected. Contributed by Community Bridges Community Bridges' senior programs provide opportunities for seniors to retain their health, independence and social connection. Elderday Adult Day Health Care, Li Line and Meals on Wheels not only meet the nutritional and medical needs of seniors, but fight isolation and keep seniors connected to their com- munity. Elderday Adult Day Health Care offers high-quality day services for adults with complex medical conditions. This supportive community allows participants to stay independent and in their homes for as long as pos- sible, while giving family members and caregivers well-deserved respite. During the pandemic the program adopted a new system of remote services for participants to meet their physical and mental health needs and help them stay out of institu- tional facilities. To receive services please visit community- bridges.org/elderday or call (831) 458-3481. In addition, a new program was developed with several commu- nity partners to meet the needs of seniors staying at home. The Senior Center Without Limits is a free online program that brings enrichment activities like yoga, art, music and support groups to seniors in their homes at no cost. It overcomes the digital divide to connect seniors to their commu- nity, engage in activities to improve cognitive processes and combat isolation. Low income seniors can receive a free tablet to help them join classes and stay connected. 2,700 classes were conducted in 2020! The Senior Center Without Limits is a partnership with Com- munity Bridges, the City of Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz Parks and the City of Watsonville.
