COVID-19 VACCINE LOCAL REGISTRATION

Are you age 65 years or older and want to get the COVlD-19 vaccine?

Individuals 65 years and older residing on the southern portion of Akwesasne can call the SRMT Office for the Aging to pre-register for the vaccine. You need to provide your name, date of birth, and phone number. A provider from Health Services will contact you to complete a health screening and schedule your appointment. To pre-register, call the Office for the Aging at (518) 358-2963.

The Mohawk Council of Akwesasne has opened a pre-registration phone for the residents of the northern portion of Akwesasne. The MCA Emergency

Operations Center is taking pre—registrations. The numbers are (613) 575-5005 or (613)575-2331. They need name, date of birth, phone number and age. Appointments will be scheduled as the vaccine becomes available.

FROM THE DIRECTOR’S DESK:

I am disappointed to tell you that we will not be able to re-open the senior center for indoor meals and activities until sometime in the new year. This was a difficult decision. It was based on the COVID positive numbers in the community and the expectation of a bad flu season. This does not mean that we are stopping services. The staff will still be delivering meals and providing other services. We are working on bringing activities such as exercise classes and Mohawk language classes to you online. We are also getting our own Facebook page! We have a variety of activity packets, art packets, puzzles and books available. Just call and let us know what you need.

Keep safe, healthy, and happy.

Niawen,

Lora Lee LaFrance

SRMT Office for the Aging Director

We now have our Facebook page – “Office for the Aging Saint Regis Mohawk Senior Center” – Updates and the daily lunch menu will be posted.
