Continuing the Japanese tradition of care and support for Seniors, the Kimochi Center has provided culturally sensitive, Japanese language-based programs and services to 3,000 Bay Area seniors and their families each year. 2021 marks the 50th anniversary of this valuable center! Services include transportation; referral and outreach services; health and consumer education seminars; healthy aging and senior center activities; social services; congregate and home delivered meals; in-home support services; adult social day care; 24-hour residential and respite care. Operating since 1971, there are Kimochi Center facilities in San Mateo and San Francisco.
