The MVMA Community Health Program
MVMA’s Senior Wellness Center provides weekly group activities to increase social connections for seniors and reduce isolation, feelings of loneliness, and the risk of depression. Senior group activities include bingo, health education, dancing, karaoke, computer classes, smartphone classes, low-impact exercise sessions, and short walks. Field trips and picnics provide connections to cultural events and nature. The intended outcome is for seniors to have more confidence in managing their well-being and physical and mental health.
This program and its activities are funded by the Asian American Health Initiative (AAHI), a part of the Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services.
Senior Transportation Program
MVMA has established a transportation program available to all seniors. Our drivers are bilingual (Vietnamese and English) and seniors can be taken to medical appointments, shopping, the gym, and to visit family and friends. Those who present Medicaid or SNAP cards pay $1; others pay $5.
