"Of course, government alone cannot provide all the services that all our residents need. That's why partnerships of the public, private and not-for-profit sectors - such as [The Beloved Community] - are so important". 
                                                         
                                                                                                  - Mayor Richard M. Daley

The Auburn Gresham Senior Center is designed to embody the culture of the surrounding community.  The Beloved Community takes great care to offer cultural elements that enrich the lives of our seniors and reflect their personal heritage and tradition.  This is seen in the design and decor of the facility as well as activities offered throughout the year, like our African American History Month Celebration and the Tracing-Your-Ancestry genealogy workshop administered by a professional genealogist.
