Testimonials

Becoming older begins a whole new chapter in one’s life. PSS Harlem Pelham Fritz Center is a meeting place for people to join in this new journey, enjoying crafts, trips, and conversation. I especially appreciate meeting my newfound friends, who have become a steadfast extended family.

I come to PSS Harlem Pelham Fritz Center not just for the many activities they provide but to socialize with other members. As you age you can become complacent in doing nothing and become isolated. The Center makes you feel like you belong to a family, and family is very essential during your golden years.
