Judy
“I have made a lot of friends here at Goodwill. I get to eat lunch with them. I am really happy now and this place puts me in a good mood. I just like it here!”
Judy joined Elderberry Junction and has had a noticeable improvement in her mood and attitude.
Elderberry Junction participant, Judy, joined the program in August 2009. Judy had a history of depression and would throw tantrums for various reasons. Since joining the program Judy’s attitude and mood have improved tremendously. The program has helped her grow as an individual; she has made new friends, participates in stimulating activities, and actually looks forward to coming to the center. Judy also suffers from back problems. The exercise program, recreational games, and community walks at Elderberry have been beneficial to her health by keeping her active and help her to get around better than if she were just sitting at home.
Elderberry Junction offered Judy a place to attend where there was structure to her day, opportunity to have meaningful day activity, socialization with others, and support to ensure her health, safety, and well being.
