We provide essential care for those who need it. In our facility we offer showers, laundry, feeding both breakfast/lunch , reception, administrations, and a tech room. We have case workers and nurses who work to assess individual situations, helping our participants directly or partnering with another community facility to meet a need. We also offer enrichment and education classes that will resume after COVID. We have a large day room where talents, hobby's or crafts can be utilized.
**During this time of restrictions for COVID we do not have this room open, but are still meeting the needs of people in all other areas.
All of our volunteers must attend a mandatory orientation before engaging with participants.
