At Anchorage Senior Activity Center (ASAC) our mission is to enhance the quality of life of Alaskans by promoting fitness, health and wellness and social interaction. With the space and services offered, Anchorage area seniors have a place to exercise, socialize and be a productive part of the community. Volunteers and members share that after retirement, they desired a place to be involved. Weekl

y Social Hour sees between 30 and 60 participants and many express their thanks for a place to get together. Lydia shares, “We come to dance and chat. We look forward to seeing each other all week and I can’t imagine what I would be doing if I wasn’t here. It would sure be a lonely time.”

On average, 200 seniors and community members daily are engaged in the thousands of activities each month that include a wide variety of programs. The following are some of the programs that ASAC offers:


• Fitness Center with Personal Training and Massage
• 42 Aerobic and Anaerobic Classes a week
• Medicare Information Office
• Diabetic Empowerment and Education Program (DEEP)
• Blood Pressure and Glucose Testing
• Cultural Events
• Library
• Computer Lab
• Dances
• Weekly Social Hour with Music and Refreshments
• Art Classes
• Craft and Quilting Room
• Philosophical Discussion Group


ASAC also collaborates with the Food Bank of Alaska to distribute 35-pound non-perishable food boxes monthly to seniors who meet the federal poverty guidelines. Our efforts to support, educate and connect seniors are growing. Alaska is the state with the fastest growing senior population in the nation for the past five years, and people age 60 and over are the fastest growing demographic in the State.

Scammers might try to trick you into giving them authentication codes sent to your phone to access your financial accounts. If you are ever asked for your PIN, an authentication code, or your bank number over the phone, don't give it.

Some Medicare beneficiaries are receiving new Medicare cards with new numbers. Medicare is sending these new cards with a letter explaining why a new number has been issued. If you aren’t sure if mail from Medicare is legitimate, call 1-800-Medicare and ask.

Call spoofing is when scammers use software to make you think you are receiving a local call or a call from agencies like Medicare, when really it's someone pretending to be them to get personal information.

Be careful when answering calls and never give out your banking or Medicare information to someone who calls.

Medicare now lets you create or log in to your account using ID.me, CLEAR, or Login.gov. These are free services that verify your identity and help protect your information.
Because these sites are connected to your Medicare number, you'll be asked for sensitive personal information, including:
• A driver's license, state photo ID, or U.S. passport
• Your Social Security Number (SSN)
• A photo or video of yourself

Unfortunately, this makes the process a prime target for scammers. 🔍
WATCH FOR THESE SCAMS:
• Fake Emails & Texts: Scammers send official-looking messages urging you to click a link to "verify your account" or claiming there's an urgent issue with your benefits. Don't click. It's a trap.
• Fake Websites: Fraudulent sites are built to look just like government pages. They'll ask for your login details, steal your personal and medical information, or even charge fees for services that are completely free.
• Unsolicited Calls: Scammers may call claiming you need to activate your new Medicare login. Medicare will NEVER call you first to ask for personal information.

PROTECT YOURSELF:
• Always start at Medicare.gov. Type it in yourself, never follow a link.
• Only trust websites ending in .gov.
• Never share your SSN or Medicare number with anyone who contacts you first.
• Report suspicious activity to your local Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP).

Watch out for offers for free food or money in exchange for your signature. SMPs are getting reports from folks that they have been signed up for hospice when they thought they were signing up for free food. If you have recently signed up for free food, money, or milk in exchange for your Medicare number, please report it to the .
