Seal of the Pueblo of Zuni

Pueblo of Zuni has a wide network of LTSS programs for elders. These programs work together to provide comprehensive, culturally appropriate care to elders within the community.

The network’s main programs are:

  • Zuni Adult Day Care Services
  • Zuni Home Health, a federally qualified health center
  • Zuni Senior Center
  • the Zuni IHS hospital’s Elder Care Program

The Elderly Services Coordinating Committee coordinates Zuni's LTSS programs and addresses gaps in services.
