The Seniors’ Program offers two programs– the Seniors’ Milan Program and the Golden Diners Lunch Program.

Seniors’ Milan Program

With an overarching goal of helping South Asian immigrant seniors fully adjust to their new community within the United States, the Seniors’ Milan Program supports seniors’ desire to lead more independent lives through education, active participation in group activities, and hands-on learning. The “milan,” which translates to “gathering” or “get-together,” is also an effective way to assist seniors in overcoming the social isolation that they often experience after moving to the United States. Every week, seniors watch movies, play games, participate in cultural and educational workshops, and enjoy yoga and light exercise. Throughout the year, they can also attend health fairs conducted in partnership with local healthcare providers, as well as participate in program-related field trips.

Golden Diners Lunch Program

The Milan is directly followed each day by Golden Diners Lunch, which provides seniors with hot, ethnic lunches cooked on premises five days a week. Daily lunches, while opening up meal opportunities to a traditionally community, are also critical in helping seniors to develop their social networks. Lunch occurs after the regularly scheduled programming for the day, giving seniors a time to develop relationships and build friendships over food.
