What a day all three sites had! Huge thanks to Spinellis for the Thanksgiving dinner that left everyone in a food coma. Every aspect of the meal was a hit with all three centers.

And an even bigger thank you to Everett Co-operative Bank for their generous donation that made this delicious meal possible.

It takes a village. What a wonderful day had by all.

✨ Honoring Our Caregivers during National Caregiver Month ✨

In honor of National Caregiver Month, The Community Family wanted to take a moment to recognize the incredible people who pour their hearts into caring for others each and every day.

To our staff caregivers, thank you.
Thank you for your patience, your compassion, and your dedication. Thank you for the way you offer dignity, comfort, humor, and genuine connection to every participant who walks through our doors. Your work is not just a job — it’s a gift. You make our Adult Day Health program a place of safety, support, and belonging. The difference you make is felt daily, quietly and powerfully.

To the family/community support caregivers, we see you. Your love, your sacrifices, and the emotional weight you carry does not go unnoticed. You show up in ways that are immeasurable, advocating, supporting, and giving care long before and long after each day begins and ends. Your trust in us means everything, and together we create a circle of care that allows your loved ones to thrive.

Caregiving is not easy. It asks for strength, resilience, tenderness, and endless heart. This month, we honor you — but truly, you deserve recognition every day.

Thank you for all you do, all you give, and all the lives you improve simply by showing up with love.

🧡 Happy National Caregiver Month 🧡

Today, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our country with courage, dedication, and sacrifice. At The Community Family , we are privileged to care for and spend our days with so many veterans—each with a story of service, resilience, and love for our nation.

Your strength continues to inspire us daily. Whether you served decades ago or more recently, your legacy lives on in the freedom we enjoy and the community you’ve helped build.

From all of us here at The Community Family, thank you for your service, your sacrifices, and the example you set for generations to come. We are deeply honored to have you as part of our family. ❤️🤍💙

The Dutton Center Marked Halloween a Day Early. And What a Day it Was!!!!

The staff had a lot of tricks up their sleeves. The first was surprising the clients by dressing up as a box of Crayons.

It was all laughs and fun for the whole day!! With the staff relay race ending the day!!

And we also celebrated staff member Ceces birthday.

We couldn't be more proud of Kendra and Katherine. To be apart of your journey is a true gift!!!! The sky is the limit girls!!! Roca

Shoutout to Kendra and Katherine, who just successfully completed internships caring for elderly and disabled adults at The Community Family through Roca's Bridge to Success program. Kendra will continue on at TCF as a permanent employee (!!!) and Katherine is planning her next move with the love and support of the TCF team at her back. Awesome work, ladies. We expect great things from you!

Thank you Encore Boston, for hosting a truly impactful leadership retreat! The topics were timely and informative, and it was a pleasure to network and connect with fellow nonprofit executives. Your team’s understanding of the challenges facing our sector- especially in today’s funding landscape- was evident and deeply appreciated. Encore Boston continues to be a valued community partner and a steward of nonprofit resilience and innovation. Thank you for your commitment to supporting organizations like ours as we navigate change, seek solutions, and strengthen our mission. The Community Family

We hope everyone enjoys the long weekend!!! Almost as much as the Medford Center enjoyed the circus.

The Big Top comes to Medford!! What a way to end the summer.

*As a reminder all 3 sites will be closed Monday in observance of Labor Day.

We all require a little extra love and care from time to time. August 6th serves as a poignant reminder for many to reflect on loved ones who are no longer with us. Today, our clients took a moment to write heartfelt messages on balloons as a tribute to those who have passed and a testament to the profound impact of a little extra love and TLC.
