VSC Connects.
The Virtual Senior Center (VSC) is an online community that allows older and homebound adults to connect and engage with each other through virtual and hybrid classes.
Constant Connection
VSC gives older adults a place to learn, explore, socialize, and find companions in just one step.
Dynamic Community
VSC offers live classes, hybrid sessions, community events, video chats, and insightful discussions. From literature to technology, health to virtual travel, discover and thrive in our vibrant virtual realm. Selfhelp understands that a “one size fits all” approach to care doesn’t work. The Virtual Senior Center supports aging on pace to acknowledge that we each age at different paces and we each have our own passions, priorities, and preferences. You can be YOU on the VSC!
