* In 2005, HCS launched a program called Social Adult Day Care (SADC) for Chinese-speaking elderly, with support from the NYC Department for the Aging, to assist frail and physically challenged elderly, who would otherwise be homebound, participate in daily senior center activities.
It’s the first time ever that a Chinese senior center in Brooklyn received approval to establish this type of program.
SADC seniors are provided round-trip transportation from their homes to the HCS senior center where they participate in arts and crafts, physical therapy sessions, music instruction, life sotry sessions and other activities in a bilingual and bicultural supportive setting.
There are more than 20 seniors enrolled in SADC so far and they all express their satisfaction with this program.
