The Adult Day Program for Memory Loss is Here to Help You

RSS Adult Day for Memory Loss, led by Peter Swanson, has thoughtfully transitioned support from the center to online. This past month we have partnered with Concerts in Motion and The Jewish Museum to deliver music and art therapy workshops. Early-stage memory loss members and their caretakers have escaped isolation and immersed themselves into the virtual community in attending Trivia, Yoga, and Bingo.  We are continuously building new programming and partnerships to stimulate and support the memory loss members and caretakers. Contact Peter Swanson at pswanson@rssny.org.
