Senior Services

 

Beginning the week of July 18th, DeKalb Human Services senior centers will reopen to a limited number of senior participants, on limited days and times, in accordance with CDC social distancing guidelines. All onsite senior programs have been modified to include social distancing parameters which must be followed. Registration is required to attend in person classes and events.

Neighborhood Senior Centers

To participate in onsite activities, visit https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/cu/HfOyOHr/classes, go to the senior center listing, select the date you wish to attend, and fill out the registration form. This page will be updated weekly with new days of availability.

Multipurpose Senior Centers

Contact Central DeKalb Senior Center and Lou Walker Senior Center directly for registration. Please note that senior participants must wear masks while in the building (except when eating or performing strenuous exercises).  Classes and programming will continue to be offered virtually for all senior centers. Please visit https://louwalkercenter.com to participate in virtual programming.

As we adjust our schedules and facility flow to support recommendations by the CDC, we ask for your patience and understanding as we move through different phases of reopening.
