JRC joined the Stark County Walk to End Alzheimer’s, turning each step into momentum for greater awareness, support, and hope for families facing Alzheimer’s. Thanks to everyone who walked, cheered, donated, and helped keep the movement moving!

All week we're celebrating the availability, value, and accessibility of community-based adult day care and therapeutic programs - and more than that, we're celebrating the people who power our Adult Day Center at JRC.

Thank you for what you do for our community of participants.

Let’s Huddle Up! We’re accepting raffle baskets and gift cards to help make the event even more exciting. Pictured is LeeAnn holding a fantastic lottery tree donated by Pamela Zander and the Faith Bolen State Farm Insurance team. Thank you for helping us kick things off!

Every donation supports a great cause! All proceeds from the Reverse Raffle benefit JRC’s Adult Day Center. Want to contribute a basket or gift card? Send us a message to get involved!

Gia is giving us a closer look at JRC’s Healthy Habits fresh food initiative, which brings more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and other nutritious choices into children’s diets while reducing processed foods.

Every other month, we prepare Healthy Habits on the Go kits for our preschoolers to take home. This month’s recipe is dirty spaghetti!

They don’t make them like Tim Dunne anymore! If you know Tim, then you know he's a hard worker. He is loyal, patient, and always ready to do what needs to be done. For 43 years, he has helped care for JRC’s buildings and, through that work, the people inside them!

Tim began his JRC career at age 23 as a bus driver and general maintenance employee at the JJ Burns Center, the site that would later become our 14th Street Learning Center. Today, he serves as JRC’s Facilities Director.

His connection to JRC runs even deeper. Tim is the only current employee who knew our founder, the late Father Coleman. Their relationship began through St. Paul’s, where Tim was active in his faith and served as an altar boy. That connection helped lead Tim to JRC and began a remarkable career of service.

For Tim, the best part of the job has always been the people. It is seeing children and seniors happy in spaces created for them. It is the smiling faces and hearing a child or Adult Day Center member call out, “Mr. Tim!” When asked what has kept him at JRC for more than four decades, Tim’s answer is simple: patience, gratitude for the work, and the happiness of the people around him.

Forty-three years is more than a milestone. It is a legacy of showing up, solving problems, and helping JRC grow!

To celebrate the Emmys, this week, members of JRC’s Adult Day Center stepped into the spotlight for an afternoon filled with Hollywood fun.

And the award for best red-carpet celebration goes to…our incredible members! 🏆🎬✨

This morning, families from both of our Learning Centers took part in Fathers Walk Your Child to School Day, hosted by the Stark County Fatherhood Coalition. We were grateful to join this community event celebrating fathers, father figures, male caregivers, and all the caring adults who show up to support children as they learn and grow.

A special thank-you to the Domestic Violence Project, Inc. for donating a goodie pack to every child! We truly appreciate the partnership and everyone who helped make the morning meaningful for all our families.

JRC red looks good out in the community! ❤️

This week LeeAnn stopped by the Schalmo Family YMCA to share how JRC Adult Day Center is the answer for seniors who want to maintain their preferred lifestyles, stay connected, and remain active in the community.
