CAPS is an Alzheimer's Day Care which provides socialization and stimulation for persons suffering from Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and stroke. This was our third consecutive year doing a project at CAPS. We were first introduced to CAPS by NAWIC Chapter #110 member Patti Rascon. Patti's family started with CAPS in October, 2003. The CAPS center has become a very important part of their lives by giving her mother a place to go outside the home, be safe, socialize with others and keep active. Family caregivers benefit from the respite, support, and consultation available. CAPS is designated as an Alzheimer's Day Care and Resource Center (ADCRC) by the California Department of Aging. The focus of our project this year (see last year's project here) was to add a new patio. |
