Community Senior Activity Centers

Franke Tobey Jones currently operates three senior centers in Pierce County:

  • Beacon Senior Center is located at 415 S. 13th Street in Tacoma.  This facility is a long-term multi-generational center, serving as both a senior activity center and an overnight shelter for young adults, while providing some cross over services and activities between these age groups.
  • Lighthouse Senior Center is located at 5016 A Street in Tacoma.  The Lighthouse Senior Center is a community center that offers a range of programs and services for aging residents of Pierce County.  The Senior Center provides programs to meet the needs and interests of seniors, including recreational and leisure programs, health and wellness programs, cultural programs and classes. The Senior Center also provides social services resources.
  • Point Defiance ~ Ruston Senior Center has been in operation since 1998 and is located at 4716 N Baltimore St in Tacoma.   The Pt. Defiance-Ruston Senior Center has been a community gathering place for thousands of seniors age 55 and older who can join in fun events and activities, stay active and healthy, make new friends and share experiences with other seniors in the local community.

Franke Tobey Jones’ top priority with our senior centers is maintaining high standards of service and engagement for seniors across Tacoma/ Pierce County.  All three Senior Centers:

  • Provide activities that engage community seniors and community partnerships.
  • Offer classes, programs and events to enhance quality of life and promote overall well-being.
  • Support healthy nutritional and wellness habits for seniors.
  • Inform, support, and encourage members to be proactive in their own lives and in the Tacoma community.
  • Provide meals through Catholic Community Services for a small fee.
