OTHER RECURRING ACTIVITIES

Memory Cafés are free, welcoming meet-ups that keep older adults mentally and socially active through engaging activities, occasional guest speakers, and community resources. All attendees, including family and caregivers, are welcome; however, no care is provided, so individuals needing assistance must bring their own caregiver.

Social Activities, Outings, & Quality of Life Programs for people living with dementia are designed to foster engagement, enjoyment, social connection, and overall well-being. These experiences can be tailored around themes such as music, movement, art, nature, and more to create meaningful opportunities for participation.
