Reviewers frequently praise the friendly staff, clean facility, and helpful services such as bill assistance, daily lunches, bingo, and transportation.

Yes, My name is Pamela B. and I am 61 yrs old and my apartment building closed so I am at Restart homeless shelter. I went down there this morning and was told that I couldn't go there unless I had a permanent address. This is a form of discrimination. I am going to have someone outside of the state of Missouri look into this.

My father goes here everyday for senior activities and exercises. I met with one of the coordinators and she was very kind and mentioned how she loved seeing my dad being so active in the community. It is clean and everyone is kind here. I highly recommend this senior center.
