Elder Housing
With the recent addition of a Social Service Coordinator at Beth-Anne and another for the other two sites, residents are better-connected w/services and monies that government agencies offer. Beth-Anne Elder Housing boasts a 99% occupancy; 185 of the 186 units are filled.
All three buildings have vegetable and flower gardens; residents participate in building management by volunteering as floor captains or building presidents. There is also a resident newsletter for the buildings.
