Our final February craft today focused on self-love. Folks made affirmation jars to utilize when they’re having a hard day. They were encouraged to write positive things about themselves as well as give their friends kind words of encouragement. It was heartwarming to see what clients wrote- and even better to see their humor come out a bit!

We sure love our clients, and thoroughly enjoy seeing the sense of community they have with each other in the day center 💕

What a sweet afternoon at the HOPE Dementia Support / CDM Caregiving Services Valentine Party!
Our friends at CDM once again opened their hearts and their home, and Shamus Hanlin filled the room with music, laughter, and pure joy.

Caregivers, families, and PLWD shared dancing, singing, and those small moments of connection that make this community so special. Nights like this remind us why HOPE exists—to bring people together, to lift spirits, and to celebrate love in all its forms.

Thank you to CDM for hosting, to Shamus for the wonderful entertainment, and to everyone who joined us. Our hearts are full.
