BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH FAMIILIES

Serving Older Adults through Changing Times distinguishes itself from its competitions by better understanding the sociological aspect of aging in a community where the resources has been very limited.

Our hands on approach allows us to build relationships with families, the community and the business community staying engaged.

<H1>BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH FAMIILIES</h1>

WISDOM BEHIND THE WALLS

Wisdom Behind The Walls was created to reconnect seniors with family members and the community at-large.

Seniors have a wealth of history, knowledge, fascinating and funny stories to share. This program helps to increase their socialization, gives them a sense of belonging and feeling valued.

The Goal “Release the Wisdom behind the Walls”.
