Barney Neighborhood House Senior Program has provided
quality services to seniors and their families that reside in
Wards I and IV of the District
of Columbia, since 1981. This
organization was selected, by the D.C. Office on Aging, to
provide much needed services to the elderly.
The headquarters is located in the Northeast corner of Ward
V with easy accessibility. Through utilizing our capabilities
and networking with other
organizations, we provide the elderly
with comprehensive social services and nutrition program
at 15 centers. The staff members receive annual training to
strengthen
their ability to serve the elderly.

One of the programs provided by the Barney Neighborhood
House is the Recreation-Socialization Program for senior
adults from the community. They
enjoy recreation and socialization
activities which include group sessions, health promotion,
exercise and self improvement skills.
Barney Neighborhood House stays connected to the community
by providing several annual forums, events and intergenerational
programs. Barney Neighborhood House continues to
enhance the quality and prolong the lives of the seniors that
it serves.
