Enhancing and Empowering

The Parkchester Enhancement Program (PEP) for Seniors is designed to assist individuals, age 60 and older, who live in the Parkchester area of the Bronx, NY, and to enhance their health, quality of life, well-being and independence. A wide variety of activities and services, such as health-related, educational, recreational and social work, are offered to the community, with something for everyone. Newly retired residents may look to PEP for recreational or volunteer opportunities, while frail homebound older adults might utilize PEP for in-home services.

The goal of PEP for Seniors is to:

Enhance the quality of life and independence of our diverse community of residents

Enhance, extend and coordinate services available to seniors living in Parkchester so that they can successfully age in place

Empower seniors to develop and implement programs that will benefit them

Work collaboratively with the Parkchester community, Naturally Occurring Retirement Community (NORC) partners and funding agencies to coordinate quality programs and services.

PEP is a Naturally Occurring Retirement Community (NORC) that allows Parkchester seniors to remain living in the community by providing the services they need to remain independent such as:

Social Services

Health Related Services

Educational / Recreational Activities
