About Us

Exceptional Services, Enthusiastic Staff

In our beautiful three-story building our dedicated staff and extraordinary volunteers plan, develop and coordinate programs and services for older residents in Glen Cove and its surrounding communities. For more than three decades the Glen Cove Senior Center has offered opportunities, adventures and assistance in meeting the challenges of aging to senior citizens 60 years of age and over. The building, located in the heart of downtown Glen Cove, is dedicated to founder and former Mayor Vincent Suozzi.

What makes our Center unique is the energy of hundreds of seniors’ spirits and the diverse continuum of care we provide for the active senior as well as the senior with cognitive and physical frailties who benefits from our Adult Day Program.

Our wealth of programs provide a variety of social, intellectual and recreational opportunities. Seniors can focus on their health in our multi-faceted wellness and exercise classes, workshops and health screenings or nourish their minds in our Life Long Learning Program, weekly discussion groups, cultural arts celebrations, excursions and intergenerational partnerships.

Our hard working staff and volunteers strive for excellence in all they do. We are proud of their efforts and especially pleased that they have been and continue to be recognized by others in the community, through numerous events including the Center's Senior Day and Senior Picnic.

We take pride in our programs and services having a wide-spread and distinctive outreach to the Glen Cove Community. Despite our age -- or perhaps because of it -- we are devoted activists and continually advocate for housing, healthcare, financial and social issues that foster independence, dignity and peace of mind. We provide entitlement information, referrals, short-term counseling and case work assistance to individuals and families in need.

A delicious hot or cold lunch, curb-to-curb transportation and ample programming, offer the backdrop to revisiting an old hobby, discovering a new interest or just spending a relaxing afternoon with friends.
