Testimonials
"I really appreciate everyone at Caregiver Connections for helping our family. Because of all of the wonderful staff and volunteers with Caregiver Connections' Senior Spot program, my father has friends here. He laughs and sings with them…and lives the life we hope for him and that he deserves to live - in spite of his disability! Senior Spot days are always good days!"
