Summary
Director Shoshana Merced reported compiling year‑to‑date data, listed upcoming classes and trips, and said she would consult the town manager about background checks for a multigenerational CoDE program and about the senior center budget.
At the Jan. 20 meeting of the Town of Marlborough Commission on Aging, Shoshana Merced, Director of Human and Social Services and Municipal Agent for the Elderly, summarized recent staff activity and upcoming senior center programming.
Merced said she has been compiling year‑to‑date data for the center and has ordered new key tags. She provided an update on the Coalition on Diversity and Equity (CoDE) multigenerational program and said she will ask the town manager whether program participants require background checks. She also told the commission she had spoken with the town manager about the senior center budget.
Merced reviewed a slate of upcoming programs: Tips for Navigating Grief; Encore Club; Mahjong Strategy class; Scam Prevention; Electric Supplier Information by AARP; Living Your Best Life by Middlesex Hospital; and Disrupting Aging in your Community by AARP. She also announced an upcoming trip with lunch to The Arbors in Manchester and noted a 'Save the Date' for the Senior Center Anniversary Party for table participants.
The minutes record no specific budget figures; commissioners assigned follow‑up on the budget and other operational items to staff for later reporting to the commission.
