A special thank you to Nyla Thompson, for thoughtfully preparing our beautiful Veterans Table of Honor for the day's events!

As people walked into our community, they were greeted by the display, which featured cherished pictures of Juniper Veterans alongside photographs of their family members who have also served. It was a heartfelt tribute visible to all.

A wonderful afternoon of crafting in the community, led by Casey from our Connections team!

Community members crafted vibrant handkerchief wreaths, picking out their own colors and having a wonderful time focusing on this creative project!

We even had surprise helpers join the fun—our Chef and a member of our Dining team stopped by to lend a hand! It was a great time shared by all and a lovely example of community connection.

Thank you to our incredible community partners!

As we enter the season of gratitude and prepare for Thanksgiving, we reflect on the importance of our local community partnerships. These deeply-rooted connections are an extension of our mission “to be the people, places and programs that nurture the spirit of life,” both inside our walls and beyond.

With 28 locations in five states, each Juniper community has woven its own unique tapestry of ties to the local community. These partnerships are vast and varied. Elementary schools, universities, dance studios, breweries, bakeries, theatres, outdoor clubs, churches, animal shelters, libraries, athletic teams, artists, non-profits, and so many more come into our communities to create experiences that meld passion with purpose.

Through these partnerships, we’ve been able to:

🔹Foster a deep sense of connection and belonging for everyone involved
🔹Offer vibrant programs and impactful experiences for both Juniper residents and the broader community
🔹Give back through volunteerism, shared wisdom, friendship, and community spirit
🔹Combat ageism and challenge stereotypes about older adults and senior living

These relationships ensure that Juniper is more than a place to live - we’re an integrated and dynamic part of the communities around us.

There's nothing quite like the sound of music and laughter to brighten a day in our Wellspring memory care neighborhood!

Community members gathered for a wonderful afternoon filled with piano music, the companionship of good friends, and plenty of smiles. It was a heartwarming time of shared engagement and connection.

Moments like these—centered on music, friendship, and joy—are key to the meaningful life enrichment we provide. The atmosphere was truly uplifting as everyone shared a smile and a song!
