I cannot emphasize enough the positive impact the SOC groups of students have had on our residents. The interactions amongst the group have been so amazing and, with no hesitation, the students jumped in. When the students treat our residents like any other human being and adapt activities and games so that any physical limitations they may have is not a factor, it is a success. Thank you!
