Our MissionLIFE's Mission of Faith is to partner with anyone touched by dementia and offer resources, education and engaging activities that promote and improve quality of LIFE.

What We Do
|
The cornerstone of LIFE is its Memory Cafés, which are lively, comforting and safe gathering places for those with memory loss and their caregivers. We provide stimulating programs, such as art, music and pet therapies, exercise, caregiver peer support and lunch. There is no cost for participants or caregivers.
|
|
At LIFE we consider all participants, caregivers and supporters as members of a family.

Participants and Their Caregivers:
|
“LIFE saved my life!”
|
“I love that everyone at LIFE accepts my Mom just the way she is, even on her ‘salty/spicy’ days!”
|
“Very helpful and caring group. It's the first time for us. This group was very welcoming. I think this group will be a great support through this journey.”
|
|
“My husband Stan was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia. Our Neurologist suggested we visit a LIFE Memory Café at least 3 times before deciding if it was for us. We've visited twice so far, everyone is so nice, informative and helpful. This is a group I think will be quite an advantage for us going forward with the disease.”
|
“LIFE ... A group that shows me I am not alone. Seeing my Mom active and smiling is a blessing. Talking to some of the best people who know what you're going through. I've grown so much as a caregiver.”

LIFE Board Members
“LIFE is one of the best organizations around for dementia-related activities. As an attorney dealing with the elderly, LIFE Cafés and their programs are a must for any professional or family member dealing with this disease and all it brings.”
-Margie T. Karl

“People living with dementia and their caregivers are often facing
neurological problems without friends or family who are well-versed in their experience.
As a result, many people feel socially isolated by dementia.
At LIFE Memory Cafés, individuals make natural social connections and
gain a network as they engage in cognitively stimulating activities.”
