Effective March 1, 2019: SCIDpda has transitioned ownership and management of Legacy House and Senior Services to International Community Health Services (ICHS). Read more about the transition here.
Since 1998, Legacy House has been providing culturally competent care to our neighborhood’s seniors. We are here to ensure that the pioneers of the Chinatown International District always have a place to call home, regardless of income or language ability.
Serving a 100% low-income, predominantly multi-Asian clientele, many of whom are first-generation immigrants who speak limited English and do not have family or friends to help them access traditional health care, Legacy House provides clients with the supportive care they need to age in place comfortably. Our seniors are able to maintain a healthy, active, and independent lifestyle as long as possible with the personal care of our dedicated and knowledgeable staff.
Our Senior Services comprises of two areas: Assisted Living Services and Adult Day Health Services.
