Though Roosevelt Island Senior Center has suspended all on-site programs in accordance with the mandate from the Mayor’s office, RISC employees have continuously put forth a strong effort to connect with vulnerable seniors at this time. Social workers and staff members are making daily outreach calls to check-in on seniors, as well as providing on-site case management, by appointment, on Mondays and Tuesdays (Korean language), from 10 AM – 3 PM. Senior Center Outreach Coordinator, Yulisa Santana, is also on-site each Monday to provide any general assistance needed.
