This program is for people with early and mid-stages of memory loss due to dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease. Our facilitators, Richard Milone, Tally Grazi, and Margaret Kim, create a nurturing and safe environment to actively involve participants in stimulating group activities such as simple table games, music, arts & crafts and exercise. Light snacks are provided. Home attendants and family members are encouraged to participate.
Comments from caregivers:
“Afternoons Out” has given our family an outlet we wouldn’t have had before. Mom has done so much better since she’s been in the program. Her confusion decreases and it gives her a purpose and place to go.”
“She’s as active as can be while she’s there. It’s helpful for us to see her having a delightful respite from her fog. It’s given our family, mother, and her aide and outlet we wouldn’t have had if she couldn’t get out from home. You’re doing G-d’s work.”
