Backgrounds in business, finance, healthcare, fundraising, public policy, and marketing are helpful but not required; however, interest in shaping the future of senior services, leveraging partnerships, networks, and funding to expand capacity and impact, and being a champion of seniors is a must. We seek individuals who are ready to serve the community and make a positive difference.

For over 50 years, the Carson City Senior Center has served the senior community of Carson City as a pillar of resources, connection, engagement, nutrition, and access to services, enabling seniors to age well and independently. Hundreds of seniors visit the Senior Center each day to enjoy lunch, access services, connect with others, socialize, and recreate. The Meals on Wheels program also delivers over 100,000 meals each year, providing a nutritious meal and a moment of kindness to frail, homebound, and isolated seniors.

If you are ready to make a difference and build the future of aging well in Carson City, interested individuals should contact Director Courtney Warner at (775) 883-0703 or cwarner@carson.org to learn more.
