The Carlsbad Senior Center offers programs for adults 60+ including resources, safety, food and information on how to stay connected.  Also offered during the Covid period is a lunch program to Carlsbad residents.  The Covid lunch program serves ~105 seniors who drive up and pick up the lunches and ~145 seniors who have lunch delivered to their homes.  The gardening kit project is an additional benefit that will be given out for free.
