The Rocket Educational Community Center for Life Long Learning is a new opportunity for people in the earliest stages of Alzheimer's disease or a related disorder to enhance their daily quality of life. REC Center sessions are offered in Philadelphia and Marlton as a pilot program and offer opportunities for people in the early stages to meet with other participants, volunteer and have meaningful experiences. Evaluation is required for participation in the program. Components of the REC Center include:
- REC Center daily sessions
- Access to our Coming Events/Ticket Opportunities
- Memories in the Making Program
- Peer-to-Peer outreach program
For more information on any of our social engagement programs, or to see if you qualify for the REC Center, please email Scott Reid, Manager REC Center, or call our 24/7 Helpline at 800-272-3900.
Arts & Culture Program:
The Arts and Cultural Program is designed to provide structured, pleasant artistic and cultural experiences to caregivers, family and friends along with those in the early to moderate stages of cognitive impairment. Through this program, people may engage in intellectually stimulating and entertaining activities that will also provide new social experiences for personal engagement! The cost for each event is $1 per ticket, unless listed otherwise.
