Success Stories-Seniors





Enid moved to the United States from Denmark in 1948, settling in the Danish community of Solvang with her husband and three children. They ran two successful businesses and loved raising their family in the small, close-knit little town. Enid lives with one of her daughters, and when she was diagnosed with dementia several years ago, she began attending Valley Haven, a senior day care center. Enid received a scholarship and is able to attend three days a week, which helps both Enid and her daughter maintain more independence in their daily lives. When asked what she enjoys most about her days at the Center, Enid said, “Mind expansion, friendship, and enjoying activities that I couldn’t do at home.”
