On any given day at the Isaacs Older Adult Center, you will find members talking on the front benches, enjoying a delicious, affordable lunch, or taking one of the many classes available. Yet membership has not been the same since the pandemic. While new people have begun coming to the Isaacs Center since the pandemic, some previous members have not returned. In an effort to reach out to the community, the Older Adult Center will be hosting a unique kind of open house, inviting everyone to Reimagine the Isaacs Center.

Reimagining Isaacs is an opportunity for past, present, and future members to connect and see everything the center has to offer. Staff members from every department have been working to make this event welcoming for past members, inviting them to re-engage and re-envision the way Isaacs fits into their lives. “We hope that in doing so, this will boost client engagement at the center and continue to be a place were older adults socialize and enjoy their time,” said Vincent Cheng, Aging Service Program Coordinator.
Engaging past members and bringing in new ones is important for the older adult population in the community. Along with socializing, the Isaacs Center is a place where older adults can access resources like help with SNAP and other benefits, office hours with their local representatives, and public safety workshops. Additionally, the center invites a number of public health organizations to hold events providing information that helps people stay healthy and enjoy a better quality of life.
We invite you to Reimagine Isaacs with us on March 28th, 2025, from 9:30 AM – 3:30 PM (followed by a coffee social).
Please RSVP by emailing Achang@isaacscenter.org or calling (212) 360-7620.
