Overview
Mission
The mission of the West Yellowstone Senior Center is to provide services and programs for our senior community members that promote a healthy and an enhanced lifestyle.
What it reported doing in 2025
The West Yellowstone Senior Center provides a comprehensive Senior Lunch and Community Support Program designed to improve nutrition, health, independence, and social connection for older adults in our rural community. The program serves approximately 150 nutritious meals each week, providing seniors with both reliable access to healthy food and an important opportunity for social interaction.In addition to meals, the program connects seniors with services and opportunities that support their overall well-being. We coordinate senior field trips and social activities, provide access to vaccination clinics and visiting health buses from Bozeman, and help connect seniors with healthcare, transportation, social services, and other community resources.The Senior Center also maintains a medical and mobility equipment loan program, providing items such as wheelchairs, walkers, canes, crutches, and shower equipment to seniors who need them at no cost.Our goal is to provide more than a meal. We strive to create a trusted community hub where seniors can stay healthy, active, connected, and independent, while ensuring they know where to turn when they need assistance.
