Join us for coffee hour at Still Waters, March 13th, 9:30am-11am
Our next coffee hour is Wednesday, March 13 at 9:30am. This is a group of current and previous caregivers that enjoy sharing memories while creating lasting friendships with lots of support, laughter and tears. Kleenex optional. Join us for a cup of coffee and a treat while chatting with others. Please drop in anytime during the coffee hour. This is a safe space for you to feel less alone and receive mutual support from others.
At times caring for another person can be heavy but it is also the most rewarding and selfless act one can do! Every caregiver needs just a kind word of support to help them rise above burnout!

Check out our enriching and collaborative month ahead for Still Waters!
As we embark on another month filled with community collaborations, we are immensely grateful for the generosity and support of organizations like the Alzheimer's Foundation of America, the Indiana Arts Commission, and the Women's Fund. Thanks to their unwavering dedication, we are able to enhance the services and experiences we offer to our guests and caregivers.

The Alzheimer's Foundation of America's ongoing support enables us to continue offering weekly music therapy sessions, providing our community with a therapeutic outlet that fosters connection and joy.

With the assistance of the Indiana Arts Commission, we are excited to introduce weekly drumming sessions from Bongo Boys, adding a rhythmic dimension to our programming that promises to uplift spirits and energize our community.

The Women's Fund allows us to offer legacy portraits to our guests and caregivers, creating cherished moments and visual testaments to lives richly lived, and cherished moments shared, preserving memories that will be treasured for years to come.

We are also deeply grateful for the ongoing contributions of Butler musicians, UINDY volunteers, Herron art therapists, and IU marketing interns. Their talents and dedication enrich our programs and strengthen our community connections, making a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve.

As we embark on this collaborative journey together, let us continue to celebrate the power of community and the transformative impact of collective support. Thank you for your ongoing commitment to Still Waters and for helping us create moments of beauty, connection, and joy for all.
