Riverwalk Adult Day Services Celebrates 35 year of Service
By: Marian Stricker – Passionate President of Riverwalk Adult Day Services (RADS)
Young at Heart! What a fantastic Gala theme to celebrate 35 years of serving adults who cannot be left alone. Our heartfelt memorial to Mayor Emeritus George Pradel, whose mother was a Riverwalk Adult Day Services participant, was a special cornerstone of the 35th anniversary. As the strains of the Pete Ellman Band died down, Councilwomen Patty Gustin stepped to the podium and delivered the City of Naperville proclamation recognizing Riverwalk for 35 years of service excellence.

It is sobering to hear that 40% of adults experience isolation or loneliness. Looking forward 5 years, 1 in 2 US workers will face the challenge of adult dependent care. When statistics show that 50% of adults live longer when they are part of a community, it is critical to develop and sustain centers for adults who are not independent. Riverwalk Adult Day Services is proud to have provided this community resource since 1983.
In 2019 Riverwalk will be hosting monthly Educational & informational Seminars and a Caregiver Facebook Support Group. We would love for you to join us!
Please help perpetuate the Riverwalk Adult Day Services mission for another 35 years. For the 2nd year in a row Riverwalk has a matching donor Year End Appeal. Visit our website at www.RiverwalkAdultDayServices.com to help to share in the caring. Most importantly, if you need a caregiver break/support visit our website, page or join our Riverwalk family. Sincerely, Marian Stricker, President Riverwalk Adult Day Services
