JF&CS Memory Cafe, Friday, June 7th in Waltham

May 25, 2024Assisting Hands

Join us for our next Jewish Family & Children Service Memory Café on Friday, June 7th, from 10:00 a.m. to noon.

Audrey Albert King of Lesley University will lead dance/fitness. Audrey’s approach uses movement to feel better in body, mind, emotions and spirit. You will be gently guided through movement experiences set to soul-stirring music. Come as you are, no experience necessary…and leave feeling full of joy and vitality!

Interested in Joining? RSVP: Call Beth at 781-693-5628 or email [email protected] by June 3rd.

Check out the full invitation here.

Please note that we will meet monthly on Zoom through the autumn and winter.

Recorded JF&CS Memory Café

Visit the JF&CS Memory Café YouTube playlist to see facilitated activities from some of our previous virtual JF&CS Memory Café gatherings. We record the facilitated portion of some virtual JF&CS Memory Café gatherings so that our guests and others can enjoy them later. At our May 6 café gathering, we recorded an inspiring 12-minute talk by advocate Laurie Scherrer about living well with dementia. See this video and the whole virtual JF&CS Memory Café video playlist here, and feel free to share it.

Want to Join Another Memory Cafe?

Many Massachusetts memory cafés now offer virtual programs, some are meeting outdoors, and some are gearing up to resume indoor meetings. You can find our directory here: www.jfcsboston.org/MemoryCafeDirectory (Look for the blue sidebar listing virtual cafés, on the right side of the page), it’s continuously updated. There is also a national virtual café directory here: www.memorycafedirectory.com/cafe-connect/.

Here is a one-minute video in English, Portuguese, and Spanish that shows memory cafés in action, including virtual and in-person cafés. Please share this with anyone who would like to know what a memory café is all about!

Assisting Hands - Boston Northwest

How can you support a senior loved one’s independence without taking away their freedom?

Empowering seniors starts with honoring their autonomy. Encourage them to make everyday choices, from meal preferences to daily routines, and involve them in care planning. Open communication and listening to their preferences—rather than simply doing tasks for them—helps maintain dignity, purpose, and confidence as they age.
