Forest Hills NORC

Queens Community House sponsors the NORC (Naturally Occurring Retirement Community) program at the Forest Hills Cooperative. NORC programs encourage “aging in place” by providing senior residents of participating buildings with case management, preventive health services, educational and cultural presentations, trips, and recreational and health-promoting activities. NORCs create a sense of community support and belonging for older adults who might otherwise feel vulnerable or isolated. 

Housekeeping, transportation, volunteer opportunities, inter-generational programs, and entitlement assistance are also offered to ensure that our NORC members maintain an optimal quality of life.
