Senior Citizen Services of Greater Tarrant County, Inc., is a non-profit organization that provides a wide range of programs and services that enable senior adults to live independently with dignity. Founded in 1967 with one senior center on Hemphill Street, the agency has grown to thirty centers located throughout Tarrany County.
One major program of SCS is the Congregate Meal Program, which provides over 220,000 delicious, nutritious hot meals to over 5,000 seniors at area senior centers throughout the year. Opportunities for active volunteer involvement in community service are afforded in over 100 non-profit organizations as well as in senior centers through the RSVP program. Over 2,100 volunteers donate over 230,000 hours of service annually to the community.
Our programs and services address the nutritional, physical, health, informational / educational, and social needs of the seniors facing aging and isolation. Our goal is to empower seniors to age in place.
