What Is a Senior Center?
Senior centers are community places where older adults can stay active, eat nutritious meals, learn new things, and connect with others. Many are partially funded by the federal Older Americans Act and supported by the state through TCAD and local AAADs, alongside city/county governments and nonprofits. Learn more about the Older Americans Act at the Administration for Community Living (ACL).
What you’ll find at many Tennessee centers:
- Group meals (often a hot lunch), plus nutrition education
- Exercise classes, walking clubs, and balance training
- Arts, crafts, music, and lifelong learning classes
- Field trips, cards/games, clubs, and volunteer opportunities
- Benefits/Medicare counseling through SHIP
- Transportation help or referrals
- Technology help and safety education
- Caregiver support and evidence-based workshops
Exact services vary. Start with your AAAD to see what’s nearby: TCAD – Find Aging Services.
How Senior Centers in Tennessee Work
- Oversight and support: TCAD and the nine AAADs coordinate funding, training, and programs. Local governments and nonprofits operate most centers. See TCAD for statewide programs and contacts.
- Funding: Many services are supported by the Older Americans Act and state funding. Some activities are funded by donations, grants, or small fees.
- Access: Adults age 60+ can use core services. Family caregivers may also find help (support groups, respite referrals). Some activities are open to adults under 60 with a fee—ask your center.
For help navigating programs, call your local AAAD through the ADRC (find your region at TCAD).

How to Find a Senior Center Near You (Step-by-Step)
- Start with the state aging website: Go to Tennessee Commission on Aging and Disability (TCAD) and look for “Find Services” or “Area Agencies on Aging & Disability.”
- Contact your AAAD: They know every center in your area and can help with eligibility, transportation, and special programs.
- Check your city/county page: Many Parks & Recreation departments host senior centers or 50+ programs. Use your city/county website and search “senior center.”
- Call before you go: Ask about schedules, fees, accessibility (ramps, parking), and whether you need to register.
- Bring basics: Photo ID (if required), emergency contact info, medication list (for fitness classes), and any doctor’s note if suggested for exercise programs.
If you have trouble finding the right phone number, start at TCAD and click your region’s AAAD.
Getting There: Transportation Options
Transportation is often the hardest part. These are common routes to explore:
| Option | Where it operates | How to request | Learn more |
|---|---|---|---|
| County/Regional public transit (including rural demand-response) | Most counties have some service | Call at least 24–48 hours ahead; plan for pickup windows | Tennessee Public Transportation Association (TPTA) – Find Transit Providers |
| Volunteer driver programs (e.g., MyRide TN in many counties) | Availability varies by region | Enrollment usually required; rides often for age 60+ | Start at TCAD and ask your AAAD about MyRide TN |
| AAAD-arranged rides or vouchers | By region and funding | Ask during your AAAD intake | TCAD – Find Aging Services |
| Veteran transportation | For eligible veterans | Coordinate with VA clinic or county veterans service office | U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and Tennessee Department of Veterans Services |
Reality check: Rural areas may have limited hours and long pickup windows. Book early, keep your phone on, and confirm your return ride before your activity ends.
Meals and Nutrition at Senior Centers
- Congregate meals: Many centers serve hot lunches on set days to adults 60+ and spouses. There’s usually no charge, but donations help keep the program going. Learn about nutrition services under the Older Americans Act at ACL – Nutrition Services.
- Home-delivered meals: If you can’t leave home, your AAAD may assess you for home-delivered meals. Availability and waitlists depend on funding and county. Start at TCAD.
- SNAP (food benefits): If your budget is tight, check eligibility for SNAP through the Tennessee Department of Human Services – SNAP.
- Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP): Monthly food boxes for eligible older adults are available in many states, including through local agencies. See state contacts at USDA – CSFP Contacts and ask your AAAD about local availability.
Tip: Ask your center if they post monthly menus and whether you need to reserve a meal in advance.
Health, Fitness, and Evidence-Based Workshops
- Falls prevention and fitness: Centers often offer A Matter of Balance, tai chi for balance, chair yoga, and walking clubs.
- Chronic disease and caregiving workshops: Many AAADs host Stanford/ACL-recognized courses like Chronic Disease Self-Management or Powerful Tools for Caregivers. Explore evidence-based programs at ACL – Health Promotion.
- Vaccines and screenings: Local health departments often partner with centers for flu, COVID-19, and other vaccines. Check with the Tennessee Department of Health.
Safety note: Check with your doctor before starting new exercise, especially if you have heart, bone, or balance issues.
Medicare, Insurance, and Benefits Help (Free)
Tennessee’s State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) offers free, unbiased help with:
- Medicare Parts A, B, C (Medicare Advantage), and D
- Medigap plans
- Medicare Savings Programs and Extra Help (low-income subsidies)
- Appeals and billing questions
Book an appointment through your AAAD or start at Tennessee SHIP via TCAD. National SHIP info is also at SHIP Help.
Caregiver Support
If you care for a spouse, parent, or loved one, ask about:
- Support groups at your local center
- Education workshops and stress management
- Respite options (varies by region and funding)
- Dementia-friendly programs
The National Family Caregiver Support Program is coordinated locally by AAADs; start at TCAD and see program details at ACL – NFCSP.
Safety, Fraud, and Consumer Protection
Unfortunately, scammers target older adults. Protect yourself by:
- Never giving out Medicare, Social Security, or bank info to unknown callers
- Hanging up and calling back using a number you trust
- Reading FTC scam alerts: FTC – Scams and Alerts
- Reporting fraud or identity theft: IdentityTheft.gov
Many centers host talks on fraud prevention. Ask your center for the next session.
How to Choose the Right Senior Center: A Simple Checklist
- Location and hours: Is it easy to reach? Are the hours convenient?
- Transportation: Does the center or AAAD help with rides?
- Activities you’ll use: Look at the calendar—meals, classes, groups you enjoy.
- Accessibility: Parking, ramps, seating, restrooms.
- Costs: Membership or class fees? Suggested donation for meals?
- Health supports: Evidence-based fitness, falls prevention, screenings.
- Benefits help: On-site SHIP or regular counseling days?
- Community feel: Try a visit—are staff and participants welcoming?
If there are two centers nearby, visit both. It’s okay to switch later if another suits you better.
Reality Checks, Warnings, and Tips
- Waitlists happen: Meals, rides, and in-demand classes may fill up. Get on the list early and ask about alternatives.
- Funding changes: Public funding varies year to year. Programs can expand or shrink. Always check with your AAAD for current status.
- Transportation windows: Rural rides may require longer wait times. Keep a book, water, and a phone charger with you.
- Health paperwork: Some fitness classes want a doctor’s clearance, especially after recent surgeries or falls. Ask ahead.
- Weather closures: Centers may follow local school district closures during severe weather. Sign up for alerts when possible.
Inclusive Services and Specialized Help
LGBTQ+ Older Adults
- Many Tennessee centers welcome LGBTQ+ participants. Ask about support groups or inclusive events.
- National support: The SAGE National LGBTQ+ Elder Hotline (1‑877‑360‑LGBT) provides support and referrals.
- Medicare help: SHIP counselors serve everyone and keep your information private. Contact Tennessee SHIP via TCAD.
Veteran Seniors
- Ask your center if a VA representative visits or if there’s a local veterans group that meets on-site.
- Benefits and health care: Start with U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the Tennessee Department of Veterans Services (TDVS). TDVS can help locate county Veterans Service Officers.
- Transportation to VA appointments may be available through VA or local transit; ask your AAAD or VA clinic.
Older Adults with Disabilities
- Centers strive to be accessible, but features vary. Ask about ramps, doors, seating, and restrooms.
- Independent living resources: Statewide Independent Living Council of Tennessee (SILC) (centers for independent living can assist with accessibility and peer support).
- For services navigation that blends aging and disability supports, contact your AAAD via TCAD.
American Indian and Alaska Native Elders
- Tennessee does not have federally recognized tribes based in-state. However, eligible AI/AN elders living in Tennessee may access programs through tribes with which they’re affiliated, the Indian Health Service (IHS) Nashville Area, and Title VI Native American Aging Programs. Start with the IHS – Nashville Area and ACL – Title VI Programs.
- Your local AAAD can still help with statewide programs (meals, SHIP, caregiver supports).
Rural Seniors and Families
- Expect fewer daily trips and longer drive times for rides. Book early, and ask your AAAD about volunteer driver programs like MyRide TN (availability varies).
- Some classes are offered virtually or by phone, especially workshops like chronic disease self‑management. Ask your AAAD if remote options are available.
