What We Do:
Opened in September of 2005, the Center's goal is to host a full spectrum of social, recreational, educational
and service oriented programs, activities and events. Our hope is that the GRSC will become a welcoming place to meet fellow
seniors for mutual support and growth.
Dreams & Visions:
Our future plans include building a Senior Gay & Lesbian Retirement Housing Community. This planned
community will provide the full range of housing options from independent living to assisted care. Until we are able to realize
our dream we will work with existing living facilities to provide referrals.
