Strafford Senior Center

201 W. Bumgarner Blvd.
Strafford, MO - 65757
(417)736-9898
Senior Centers Offer Friendship, Fun, and New Directions to Healthy Living. During the early 1980s, the SWMOA Board of Directors made a standing commitment to help senior organizations achieve local ownership of centers. This would guarantee a future for senior centers, even if our funding ceased. To fulfill this commitment, SWMOA began encouraging senior corporations to purchase senior center buildings, with the assurance that we would then rent or lease the building from them for services. The income from our rent or lease payments has helped senior communities successfully work toward debt-free ownership of their buildings. Today, we provide services through 38 senior centers. Our Senior Centers are generally open from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m., Monday - Friday, and they are managed by an employee of SWMOA, whose title is Senior Center Administrator. Our centers are committed to serving the full spectrum of seniors, from the healthy, active senior who wants to use a lifetime of skills and experience to make a difference in our community through volunteering, to the frail elder who requires assistance meeting the needs of daily life...

Greene County Various Assistance Programs

Below we list an array of other helpful resource programs we have found in Greene County.

Fair Grove Senior Center

122 S. Orchard Blvd.
Fair Grove, MO - 65648
(417)759-9455
Fair Grove is a town of approximately 1,400 people located in Greene County in northeast Missouri. Until recently, they did not have a building to meet the needs of the elderly in this area of the county. They are hoping to attract people from parts of Green, Polk, Dallas, and Webster counties. Because they didn't have their own building, the Fair Grove Senior Center group met every Tuesday in the Fellowship Hall of the United Methodist Church for lunch. Now that they have their new building, they will be open for lunch five days a week and stay open longer, while offering more services. Hours of Operation: 7:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. Lunch is served from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The land for their building, generously donated by Howard and Charles Huff, is located east of the Fair Grove Lion's Club and across the street from the Fair Grove Department of Water Resources at 122 S. Garden Boulevard. In order to pay their share of the expenses, they intend to allow others to use their building after hours and on weekends on the basis of a contribution. ..
