"Momma took such good care of us that we want to take care of her."
     ~Phillis Robinson, who along with sisters and brothers, cares for her 81-year-old mother, who is in the last stage of Alzheimer's    Disease. While family members go to work, their mother comes to Life Enrichment, where she gets a bath and her hair washed, is fed and has her diabetes monitored.

  • Middle-aged adults who might have... a psychiatric illness, injuries from an accident
  • "It's what Sammy wants. He doesn't miss a day. He always asks every night if he's going the next day. It's the best for him because he would be at home by himself."  ~ the mother of a 50-year-old man who has been disabled since birth.

 

  Young adults who might have... cerebral palsy, Down's Syndrome, accident-related injuries

"I didn't know that Life Enrichment took young people until someone suggested it, and we did a trial day, and Kim loved it. It is a fantastic place. I don't know what Kim would do without it."  ~the mother of a 20-year-old who had spinal cord injuries in an accident
