Senior Affairs

The Albuquerque Department of Senior Affairs provides many services and programs for adults ages 50 and older, including social services, recreation amd fitness programs, transportation, nutrition services, and volunteer programs.

More than ever before, seniors are working longer, trying new things and engaging in their communities.

Now, more than ever, seniors are embracing extended careers, exploring new interests, and actively participating in their communities. They’re taking charge, prioritizing wellness, emphasizing independence, and advocating for themselves and their peers. Their determination to live life to the fullest is driving change to make it happen.

In Albuquerque, the Department of Senior Affairs is your go-to resource for a wide range of senior services. Our vibrant 50+ community has a world of opportunities awaiting them at any of the eight senior and multigenerational centers. Here, you can dive into an array of enriching experiences, from sports and recreation activities to the arts, lifelong learning, delectable meals, special events, and invaluable support groups.

Some programs, like home-delivered meals, transportation, and care coordination, funded by the Older Americans Act and the Area Agency on Aging, have a minimum age requirement of 60. While certain classes, trips, and services may incur a fee, options like lunch are offered with suggested donations or nominal fees. No one is denied services for choosing not to contribute.

For those under 50, the multigenerational centers provide a selection of services and activities, ensuring that everyone can find something tailored to their needs and interests. Discover, learn, stay fit, and enjoy life to the fullest as part of our thriving community!
