We offer a safe and stimulating environment for adults in a community-based group setting. Adult Day Services are designed to provide adults with supervised care in a safe place outside the home during the day. We also afford caregivers respite from the demanding responsibilities of caregiving. Our program offers creative self-expression activities, a healthy and delicious lunch, socialization throughout the day, and supervision by trained leaders and volunteers.

Volunteers serve an important role at adult day services center. When you volunteer, you’re helping older adults remain in their own homes for as long as possible. Plus you are helping Adult Day Services carry-out its mission. The return you receive from volunteering will enrich your life.
