Philosophy

Group gatherings provide positive support for individuals living with memory loss or related cognitive changes, their families and care partners.  Regularly scheduled gathering times – in which individuals can experience social interaction and activities in a safe environment – provide a much-needed break from the disease, help to alleviate stress and add to quality of life.

A Safe Place

The Memory Cafe provides a welcoming place of comfort, preventing loneliness and isolation, where people with memory changes and their care partners, family, and friends come together in a safe, supportive environment. Our activities may consist of conversation, music, arts, games, refreshments, gardening, walks, field trips and most importantly, laughter. Each person is encouraged through these activities to use their strengths and abilities to participate and have fun.
