Wallingford Community Senior Center (WCSC) is the place
for positive and healthy aging. A space where our members are
empowered to live meaningful, enriched lives through their aging
journey. We create programming and provide services that are
informed by real-world knowledge and hands-on experience.
We honor our members’ goals, and never take a one-size-fits-all
approach. And we’re located at the heart of a vibrant community
showing the wider world that older adults are essential and deserve
an inclusive place to call home.
