What is an "intergenerational shared-site day program?"
It is a program where child and adult providers share a campus or building and mutual resources. In this positive environment, elders become storytellers to children and children give new life and joy to the elders. A dynamic exchange between youth and elders leads to a thriving community. Children connect-sharing one smile and one visit at a time. The Clelian Center is fortunate to be located down the hall from the Sacred Heart Manor Nursery & Kindergarten.
What Happens Each Day?
Recreational programs are scheduled throughout the day to enhance participants' cognitive, physical, social and emotional well-being. Reminiscence, Sensory Stimulation, Creative Therapies in Art and Music, Intergenerational Activities, Seasonal and Religious Celebrations, Pet and Horticultural Therapy, Bingo, Cards, Sports, and Outings are personalized according to participants' needs and abilities.. All are designed and implemented by a Certified Therapeutic Recreational Specialist and her team.
