Meet Your Neighbor: Domingo Espinal

“I started coming to QCH’s Forest Hills Senior Center 18 years ago. My wife and I had just moved into the Forest Hills Coop and we were looking for something to do, so we came here to play dominoes. Now we come all the time and we are members of the NORC program as well.

“Both programs have helped me a lot. NORC guided me through applying for SNAP (food assistance), and the center gives workshops on improving our health. They also provide us with hot meals and run a food pantry. Sometimes, I’ll come to the center and play Spanish music. I know how to play the guitar and it feels good to perform for the other seniors.

“I come here to have a good time with lovely people, instead of being alone. There’s activity and entertainment – QCH gives me life.”
