Hand in Hand is a location for loved ones who may have memory concerns or physical limitations that are hindering them from getting out and participating in social activities. Growing older can be an isolative and painful process with losses in mobility, memory and independence and increased concerns in depression and social isolation. Participating in Hand in Hand allows participants to reduce some of those concerns.

The staff at Hand in Hand have witnessed individuals flourish in their independence, improved health and overall enjoyment of life after attending programing and spending time with seniors similar to themselves. The program provides a structured and supportive environment to give loved ones a sense of belonging along with personal independence.
