What does prevention look like?

Sometimes it looks like a home visitor knocking on the door—offering support, resources, and reassurance when families need it most. That’s possibility in action.

Senior Services had such a wonderful time on their field trip this past Tuesday, April 21st!

A group of 10 seniors went on an adventure downtown to be apart of a guided tour of the Colorado State Capital.

The group learned about the capitals history, architecture and the work that happens there!

One of the main highlights from their adventure was the chance to observe the General Assembly, and walk up to the dome!

When the guided tour was completed the group enjoyed a relaxing picnic outside with the beautiful Colorado sunshine and weather.

Thank you to everyone who joined on this outing, we love having the opportunity to create fun and meaningful experiences together.

Stay tuned for the next Senior Services adventure!
