Older Adult Services
Bronx House is proud to offer a comprehensive network of Older Adult Services that support healthy aging, independence, and meaningful community connection. Through the Weinberg Older Adult Center and the Pelham Parkway NORC, we provide a full spectrum of programs, resources, and personalized support that help older adults remain active, informed, and empowered in the neighborhoods they call home.
At the heart of Older Adult Services is THRIVE 360: A Holistic Approach to Aging Well—our signature initiative designed to support every dimension of an older adult’s well‑being. THRIVE 360 is more than a program; it is a lived experience rooted in six core pillars: Technology, Health, Recreation, Information, Voice, and Enrichment. Together, these pillars create a full‑circle model that ensures older adults feel seen, supported, and inspired to live with confidence, dignity, and joy.
Whether through daily meals, arts and wellness classes, technology support, benefits assistance, case management, or community‑building activities, Bronx House is committed to meeting older adults where they are and helping them thrive. Our unified approach ensures that every participant—whether at the OAC or the NORC—has access to the tools, knowledge, and community they need to age well, stay connected, and continue contributing to a vibrant, intergenerational Bronx.
Lunch Program
Take a break in a warm, welcoming environment and enjoy lunch with us Monday through Friday at noon.
Our meals are thoughtfully crafted to support a healthy lifestyle and reflect the diversity of our community. Each day features Kosher and Non-kosher meal options, as well as a cold alternative for those who prefer something lighter. From traditional favorites to culturally inspired dishes, there’s always something satisfying on the menu.

The Pelham Parkway Naturally Occurring Retirement Community (NORC) Supportive Service Program is dedicated to helping older adults remain independent, connected, and thriving in the homes and neighborhoods they know best. Our program brings together health providers, social service partners, NYCHA, and residents to create a supportive, culturally responsive community where aging in place is not only possible, but empowered.
We proudly serve adults age 60 and older residing at Pelham Parkway Houses and 2440 Boston Road Plaza. Services include personalized assistance with public benefits such as Medicaid, SNAP (food stamps), and NYCHA documentation, as well as recreational and social activities designed to strengthen community engagement and social connection. Given our predominantly Spanish-speaking population, all services are delivered in a culturally respectful and linguistically accessible manner.
A registered nurse is on site 2 days per week, providing health education, screenings, and ongoing support. Our team also offers advocacy and case assistance to help older adults navigate complex systems and access critical resources. The Pelham Parkway NORC is a trusted partner for older adults seeking stability, connection, and compassionate support within their own community.
The program is funded by NYC Department for the Aging, with additional support through discretionary funding from City Council Members.
