Purposeful days.Meaningful connection.Dependable respite.
The Day House is an adult day program for people who need more support than staying home alone can provide and want to continue living in their own homes.
Designed with adults living with memory loss and dementia in mind, The Day House provides an engaging, supported day while family caregivers have dependable time for work, appointments, rest, and everything else life requires.
A dementia diagnosis is not required.
No commitment. Receive opening updates and help shape the program.
Support should help someone participate in life, not simply keep them occupied.
At The Day House, members can choose from meaningful activities, movement, music, gardening, creative projects, shared meals, conversation, or a quieter pace.
Everything is designed around what each person can do, enjoy, and contribute, so The Day House feels like somewhere worth going, not simply somewhere they need to be. That means a more engaging day for members and dependable time away for family caregivers.
