Proclamation
During the full third week of September (16 through 22), please join us in celebrating the adult day services program that make a critical difference to thousands of individuals allowing them the ability to continue aging in place.
Adult Day services provide vital support, education, and respite for family members who often must balance an individual’s need for assistance with other family and employment responsibilities.
