The nonprofit plans to fundraise for a new all-ages community center in town.A group of Los Gatos residents formed a nonprofit foundation to support older adults and create an all-ages community center.
One of its central goals is creating a community center to serve as a hub for resources and promote intergenerational collaboration. The town councilto allocate $866,000 of its remaining American Rescue Plan Act funds to revamp the Adult Recreation Center into a community center. “Our work to create the town’s senior services roadmap resulted in tremendous engagement of the Los Gatos community and was unanimously endorsed by the town council. It revealed the critical need for an intergenerational community center with dedicated space for older adults,” said committee member Tom Picraux.
The roadmap report illuminated several areas where the town could better support its older adult population, like boosting communication and engagement, creating an inventory of affordable senior housing and connecting seniors to resources. Town council, staff and now the foundation can tackle these issues in the coming years.
