We are bursting with pride for our very own Rae Ann Gibson-Sojak!

At the 2026 Komen Pittsburgh MORE THAN PINK Walk, Rae Ann represented breast cancer survivors in an incredibly powerful way. She took to the course and honorably carried the meaningful 1-to-4-year Survivor Banner!
Rae Ann inspires our community every single day with her strength, dedication, and vibrant spirit. It was truly moving to see her take that inspiring energy to the walk, honoring all those affected by breast cancer and celebrating her own journey.
Please join us in cheering Rae Ann on and celebrating this amazing milestone.

Our hearts melted watching residents share some sweet, gentle moments with ZuZu, the therapy Labrador. There is truly nothing quite like the unconditional love and comfort of a four-legged friend to brighten up the afternoon and bring out the biggest smiles. 💛
A huge thank you to ZuZu’s owner, Greg, and the wonderful team at Animal Friends for bringing so much joy to our community.🐾

Behind Every Great Community is an incredible team!

We had such a wonderful time at our "Meet the Leadership Team" event! It was a pleasure to welcome families, residents, and neighbors to get to know the faces behind the care.

We shared more than just conversation—the afternoon was filled with delicious food and meaningful connections that strengthen our community family.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello. Our doors (and our hearts!) are always open.

Mother’s Day at Juniper Village at Forest Hills was a beautiful tribute to the women who make our community so vibrant. We were thrilled to welcome families for an afternoon of connection and celebration.

Special thanks to Courtney Lynn for providing the perfect soundtrack for our day, and to our culinary team for the delightful flavored teas and treats. Moments like these remind us why "Connections" is at the heart of everything we do.
