PROGRAM UPDATE REGARDING THE SENIOR CENTER

At the City of Pico Rivera the health and safety of our residents and employees is our primary goal.  Given that priority, the City continues to monitor the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) situation that is not only affecting the County, but the State of California as well.  As a result of the general advisement from the State Governor Gavin Newsom, we have made the tough but necessary decision to cancel or postpone our City events and programs in order to protect our residents and employees and supplement  the County’s and the State’s efforts to prevent further spread of COVID-19.

As of Wednesday, March 18, 2020, the Pico Rivera Senior Center will CLOSE and all programs and events at the Senior Center including the SASSFA Lunch Program will be suspended until further notice.  SASSFA will be providing an alternative meal service for those that participate in the SASSFA meal program (Please see below).  The Senior Center’s caseworker will continue to take scheduled appointments over the phone, and the AARP Tax Assistance program will be suspended. 

This decision did not come lightly; however, the health and welfare of our residents, our participants, and especially our most vulnerable population, seniors and children, are of the utmost importance.
