With the Council on Aging and an agreement between the City of Pittsfield and the center, Girls Incorporated administered the first central county adult social day care program for frail elders. Originally housed in the Senior Center on Bradford Street two days per week and at the center three days per week, the program expanded in 1989 and there are now two freestanding programs. Girls Incorporated s model continues to grow and develop. It represents the finest response to an important emerging need.
Opportunities abound in the center for intergenerational activities.
This program has become a delightful and integral part of the active community center. The center's ASDP Program is suspended until building renovations are complete. Lack of temperature control become too demanding on frail members.
