Why people choose these programs
Days can feel long or isolating, especially if you live alone or do not get out very often. These programs give people something to look forward to, such as a familiar place, friendly faces, meaningful activities, and often a warm meal. For caregivers, they also provide reliable daytime support and time to rest or attend to other responsibilities.
