The beating heart of our community is you. Our programs are designed to engage residents with a curriculum rich in proven strategies that fire you up, promote interaction, and optimize community life. We love unleashing passions, new and old. That’s what excites us. That’s what keeps us striving to bring you even more.
Each resident is encouraged to participate in a spectacular array of social activities, events, classes, and outings that best suit their interests and deeper senses of discovery. Our caring, attentive associates are always here to support you and help foster a sense of purpose and contentment. We ensure there’s something for everyone in our community.
Signature Programs






There’s something for everyone.
Residents, associates, and local experts share their interests and create new opportunities to connect, grow, and learn as a community. We feature dozens of classes, programs, and workshops, and you're sure to find something that piques your interest.
The perfect fusion of care and wellness.
Through our partnership with the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners, we train our Naya caregivers to incorporate our residents into the rhythms of daily living. With empathy and understanding, Nayas communicate through validation rather than correction, helping to instill a sense of joy and purpose.
Dine with dignity.
Rediscover the joys of dining with accessibility and independence at the table. Devour protein-packed, nutritionally balanced meals served as bite-sized hors d’oeuvres. No assistance, no distractions, no utensils – no problem.
Go where the wind takes you.
Thrilling adventures await with safe, adapted group outings that defy expectations. From overnight camping trips to hot-air balloon rides and everything in between, the possibilities are endless.
Experience a whole new reality.
Our EngageVR virtual reality program creates transformative and immersive digital experiences that delight the senses. Visit places you’ve never been to for a world of new experiences — all at a time of your choosing and from the safety and comfort of home.
Welcome made warmer with new friends.
Gain insider knowledge from your personal ambassador, a fellow resident and new friend here to help you get settled. Your ambassador will make introductions and share their tips and tricks for easing into community life, getting involved, and flourishing in your new home.
