The Hualapai Elderly Center offers a multidimensional program with a wide variety of leisure activities. The minimum age to participate in these activities is 55. Some of the activities are held at other locations in the community and the center provides transportation to these activities, whenever possible. Transportation services are also provided for participants to the Elderly Center, hospital; and local town with a 3-day advance reservation. Advocacy representation on issues pertaining to income, Medicare, Medicaid, insurance, Social Security, and low income housing is offered on specific dates which are advertised in the monthly calendar distributed at the center the first of each month. All activities, meetings day trips, and daily menus are posted on this calendar.
