Seniors First to reopen Seniors Cafés including Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln & Auburn locations

Senior Cafés provide community and connection for elderly clients

Roseville, Calif .- For the first time since closing due to the pandemic, Seniors First will re-open all seven Seniors Cafés, congregate dining sites for seniors in Placer County.

All COVID-related modifications to the program, including delivered and ‘to go’ meals, will end in favor of the healthy community that congregate dining provides.

“We have all missed the shared conversation and smiles that come from dining together and are excited to once again open our doors to our beloved seniors.”

Stephanie Vierstra, Seniors First Executive Director

July 3

During the hot summer, when temperatures can preclude a trip to the store or local food closet, it is important to remind seniors that there are local options available for a warm meal and friendly face. Starting July 3, all cafés will be open to provide a hot, healthy lunch on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Seniors are encouraged to attend any of the seven neighborhood locations for fresh and flavorful meals that are prepared and served in accordance with federal nutritional guidelines for seniors. Meals are offered at a suggested voluntary, confidential contribution of $3. However, those unable to are always welcome.

Besides nutritional value, the Cafés also provide socialization for guests. With many living alone and at risk of isolation, sometimes a visit to the Café is the only social interaction of the day. Cafés are cozy and inviting with comfortable furnishings and staffed by friendly volunteers.
