This initiative, in collaboration with the Center for the Empowerment of Families, Inc., underscores a commitment to fostering community engagement and healthy living for older adults in Altadena and neighboring areas. The programming, which includes gardening art, chair yoga, and creative art workshops, provides a vital hub for learning and socialization, building on the center’s mission to serve seniors of all socio-economic levels.
