Community Connectors

Turning Strangers into Neighbors, and Neighbors into Friends

Our award-winning Community Connector program builds networks of neighbors and friends who can be there for each other – plus have fun and get more active together.

The Community Connector program supports neighbors in coordinating a range of local activities and outreach for seniors and people with disabilities, from exercise classes and walking groups to potlucks and volunteer projects.

Join thriving Community Connector programs online or in-person in the Cayuga, Crocker Amazon, Inner Sunset, Merced Extension Triangle, Midtown Terrace, Miraloma Park, Potrero Hill, and Sunnyside neighborhoods, including dedicated Chinese-language days at Cayuga and Crocker Amazon. We also support slightly different models of neighborhood networks in the Western Addition and Sunset-Parkside neighborhoods.

Community Connector Networks

COME ALONE, LEAVE IN PAIRS. Neighbors gather at a local church for Always Active Senior exercise classes, presentations on healthy living, computer tutoring, community celebrations, and much more.

STRENGTHENING NEIGHBORHOODS. Together with long-time residents and community groups, Cayuga Connectors recently earned the title of “Comeback Neighborhood of the Year.”

In neighborhoods across San Francisco, local  Community Connectors have helped build lively, inter-generational groups of neighbors to support older adults and people with disabilities in their community. Most of these neighborhoods don’t have a senior center or community center within walking distance. Instead, neighbors meet at local churches, parks, and in each others’ homes.

Community Connectors organize a wide range of activities and events each month for older residents, including Always Active Senior exercise classes, art activities, and presentations on healthy aging presentations, de-cluttering, preparing for emergencies, and finding transportation options, to name a few. And there are plenty of opportunities for fun: potlucks, sing-alongs, yard sales, and other events that bring together neighbors of all ages.

Whatever the activity, neighbors are getting to know each other—often for the first time despite years of living close by. They’re building the friendships and support they need to be there for one another as they age in their community. See our calendar for upcoming activities or email our Director of Community Engagement, Patti Spaniak-Davidson, for more information.

Neighborhood Network in the Western Addition: The St. Francis Square Cooperative

neighborhood-stfrancissq

NEIGHBORS HELPING NEIGHBORS.  St. Francis Square residents volunteer to carry groceries and laundry up flights of stairs, walk dogs, help with computer questions, share meals, and visit or call older neighbors.

At St. Francis Square in the Western Addition, neighbors come together to support aging residents in their apartment cooperative. The CLC Co-op Committee now organizes residents to help each other, arranges regular educational and social events and a walking group, and regularly publishes helpful tips for healthy aging in the cooperative’s newsletter. See our calendar for upcoming activities at St. Francis Square or email Betty for more information.
