About Aquatic Park

The San Francisco Senior Center (SFSC) opened in Aquatic Park in 1947 as one of the first nonprofit senior centers in the United States. Nearly eight decades later, Aquatic Park Center is still serving seniors day in and day out.

We’re thrilled to partner with the Institute on Aging to launch Support Circles. A pilot program designed to promote emotional well-being and mental health among older adults. This 8-week initiative will be offered at both the Downtown Senior Center and Aquatic Park Senior Center, with enthusiastic participation already underway.
