Wellness Center for Older Adults
Memory Cafe
Come and join us in this supportive environment including brain and memory exercises
for dementia and Alzheimer's patients and their caregivers. This class takes place on the FOURTH Wednesday of every month at 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm at the Sam Johnson Recreation Center (SJRC) at
401 W. 16th St., Plano. Please RSVP with the Wellness Center at 972-953-7669. Membership to the SJRC is not required to participate.
Caregiver Support Groups
If you're in the role of a caregiver, you may be feeling worn down, frustrated and tired? Join Nora Gravois, LMSW, for a support group of other caregivers and leave knowing you are not alone. Held via Zoom as well as in-person groups, please call the Wellness Center for a schedule of groups that would fit your situation. No cost to you, so come and feel supported and encouraged by Nora and other caregivers.
Some of these support groups are currently being done via Zoom and in-person and do not require a previous appointment. There are other more tailored in-person groups available once you have met with the therapist.
The Front Porch
This get-together is offered from 1:00 - 2:30pm on the third Thursday of every month at the Sam Johnson Recreation Center for Adults 50+. This event is designed for those who care give for another and need a break to socialize and enjoy conversation and games with others, like they did sitting around "on the front porch". Come and join our group!
This class is offered in person.
