St. Ann Center is an intergenerational day care center that is open from 6 am to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. The term “intergenerational” means we care for individuals of all ages, of every generation.
St. Ann Center strives to prevent premature institutionalization of the elderly and persons with disabilities. Those that we care for receive compassionate and cost-effective care then return home at the end of the day. Our intergenerational program brings clients of all ages together for planned and informal activities. Children benefit from positive one-on-one attention from nurturing, caring adults, and adults gain a sense of purpose by sharing wisdom and skills with children. Adults talk and smile more as they remember their own childhood and their children. They also participate more in activities. Adults and children look forward to these special times when they share and learn from one another.
St. Ann Center for Intergenerational Care is sponsored by the Sisters of St. Francis of Assisi.
