“Last week I was approached by a resident. She started by saying that she absolutely loves it. She said that before she came here, she was very shy, didn’t have many friends and had low self-esteem. She said that the staff are always positive and welcoming to her. She has made many friends here and she is much more outgoing. She hugged me as she said thank you for always being there for every child and adult that walks through the door and always giving a fun, safe and welcoming place for all.”
Teaching Compassion
“A few days ago I noticed one of our residents who was visibly upset because he didn’t have any . As the others noticed him crying at the table, a group of 5 or 6 residents joined him at his table. As I sat there with him and tried to calm him down, every other person at the table gave him solace It was so great to see all of these people who didn’t know each other come together to brighten another person’s day.”
