Senior allies pivot services as SRC building remains closed
Salvation Army Center coordinates mask access with United Way and guides seniors to CARES Act funding while SRC and partners adapt operations. Lawrence Parks and Recreation’s Gayle Sigurdson notes reduced activities and a shift to virtual classes like Beginning Mindfulness, as Lifelong Travel pauses. AARP Tax-Aide unit plans curbside service with secure data handling and site confirmations, working with Central United Methodist Church and the Senior Resource Center. Megan Poindexter and Michelle Meier emphasize continued community engagement and readiness to reopen once health guidance allows.
