Socializationhelps prevent
dementia
“...social isolation may be an impor-tant risk factor for cognitive decline in the elderly.” -The American
Journal of Public Health
...plus, it reduces frustration & agitation
of dementia
“...individuals engaged in a lot of social activity had the slowest rate of memory decline.”
Margie & Wanda enjoy a great friendship at Life Enrichment.

Cooking is therapyWhether a chance for older adults to continue doing what they’ve always done or for younger adults to learn skills that help them be
“just like everyone else,” cooking is a therapy at Life Enrichment.
