Gathering Place offers a supportive and enriching environment for adults experiencing early to mid-stage memory loss or other cognitive impairments. This unique day program has become a trusted resource for families seeking dependable care for their loved ones, allowing family members to catch up on chores, run errands, or simply take some much-needed time for themselves. The staff at Gathering Place are dedicated to creating a compassionate atmosphere where participants are treated with respect and provided with activities and support tailored to their specific needs.
At the heart of the program is a proactive approach to brain health. Gathering Place offers a four-hour, education-based class specifically designed for individuals with early memory loss. These classes are held weekly on Thursdays from 9 am to 1 pm. The curriculum focuses on enhancing cognition, improving overall well-being, and helping participants rediscover the joys of living well despite the challenges of memory loss. Each session is thoughtfully structured to support not just mental engagement, but also the emotional and social needs of each individual, redefining what aging can look like for those facing memory concerns.
Participants at Gathering Place benefit from a warm, community-oriented setting where every day brings new opportunities for growth, connection, and fulfillment. The program’s team is committed to fostering a sense of belonging, independence, and dignity. In addition to direct care, Gathering Place encourages members of the broader community to become involved through its volunteering program. Community members are welcomed as volunteers, contributing to the richness of experiences available to participants and helping to create a nurturing environment that uplifts everyone involved. Gathering Place stands out as a place of understanding, support, and innovation for those living with memory loss and their families.
