What’s better on a long winter day than good friends and a classic game of Monopoly? 🎲❄️

The competition is heating up here at The Cedars! There is nothing like a little friendly strategy and a lot of laughter to make a chilly afternoon fly by. It’s moments like these that truly make our community feel like home.

Social connection is a powerful medicine. 🌿 At Mindful Connections, our participants aren't "patients"—they are peers.

From specialized exercise in our rehab gym to sharing a laugh over lunch, we focus on the strengths our neighbors still have. It’s this innovative approach that earned us a $125,000 national grant to continue serving the Greater Portland area.

✨Home for the Holidays Open House ✨

Our Home for the Holidays Open House & Mini Market was a wonderful success!

Here’s a sneak peek from before the festivities began—showcasing our holiday treats, including our featured drink of the night - a Peppermint White Russian, and a few of our members enjoying the moment.

Guests enjoyed guided tours of our beautiful community, festive light bites and drinks, live music from a talented band, and a holiday mini market with amazing local vendors. It was a joy to welcome neighbors, families, and friends to celebrate the season with us.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this event so special—we loved opening our doors and sharing the holiday spirit!
