Canon Kip Senior Center
Since 1975, Episcopal Community Services (ECS) has been providing services to unhoused or at-risk seniors in the South of Market Street (SOMA) neighborhood and beyond.
The Canon Kip Senior Center (CKSC) is San Francisco’s only senior center in the South of Market Street (SOMA) neighborhood, and serves a population from ages 60 on up, as well as adults with disabilities.
The seniors and adults with disabilities who access the CKSC have limited access to technology and rely on the center for socializing, health supports, and a healthy lunch.
Through a partnership with the San Francisco Department of Disability and Aging Services (DAS), ECS hosts a daily drop-in center for seniors, as well as provided a weekly food pantry and daily hot lunch for seniors and adults with disabilities (ages 18 and above). In addition to activities such as Bingo, karaoke, exercise and movement classes, cultural celebrations, and other social events, the Center provides a computer lab and case management services.
The Senior Center has continued to serve the flourishing API community through hosting and joining Filipino celebrations in SoMa and the rest of the City such as the Pistahan Festival every August.
In May of 2024, CKSC hosted its 26th Annual Flores de Mayo event, a cherished Filipino tradition. CKSC is expanding services through another partnership with DAS, becoming the Aging & Disability Resource Center for District 6. This allows us to increase our drop-in assistance as well as allowing us to provide services at other locations throughout the district.
