| The Adult Center at Greenwood Park is a community-gathering place, dedicated to enriching the adult experience. We provide a wide range of recreational and educational programs, support services with a registered nurse and social worker and volunteer opportunities for people of any age. The Longmeadow Adult Center mission is to help adults who are over age 60 remain independent and functioning members of the community and to assist them and their families in finding services, support and resources.
