Wisdom Behind The Walls

Wisdom Behind The Walls was created to reconnect seniors with family members and the community at-large.  Many seniors are lonely and afraid; we felt it was important to bring attention to the suffering of seniors due to isolation (the lack of human contact and socialization).

Effects of isolation include:

• Generally decreased feeling of vitality, less energy and feeling tired more often

• Greater likelihood of mental health illnesses, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, etc.

• More frequent bouts of sickness, such as colds or flu, and longer recovery times

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.  Additionally, we receive an education that cannot be found in any book.  The program is a win-win for everyone!
