Caching Memories Packages
Providing Connection for Older Adults (Memory Holders)
Time is precious for all of us, especially for our aging loved ones. Stories are a gift to future generations, but they must be shared. Encouraging older adults to reminisce on life experiences, using photos as a prompt, helps keep them engaged and connected.
achi’s Caching Memories program builds a multi-generational relationship by connecting older adults to younger adults for one-hour weekly virtual conversations. This program provides families with a new approach to memory care and allows stories to be preserved in a memory book that can be shared for ongoing engagement.
