Our Adult Day Program is licensed through the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. It operates Monday through Friday, from 9am-4pm, and makes use of the existing host of programs and services run at the Levin JCC.

Full-time (five days per week) and part-time options (two-, three, and four-day enrollments) are be available. Please note: half-day enrollment options are not offered.

We encourage participants to attend at least two days a week in order to get the most out of the program and develop relationships with the staff and other participants.

Programmed activities and events take advantage of everything our Jewish campus has to offer: the Levin JCC’s Health and Wellness Center, The Lerner Jewish Community Day School, and our safe, beautiful, walkable campus.

Examples of activities include: art projects, musical performances and participation, historical and cultural programs, intergenerational celebrations focusing on Jewish holidays, and physical care and exercise.

Here’s a sample of what a day in the life of a Gindes Center particpant looks like, with wellness and arts programs throughout the day: 

• 9-10:15am: Arrival & Snack
