Pioneer Ridge portraits

This January 12th, six new people joined our LifeJAMS program! Remember that our LifeJAMS is a program geared towards youth ages 18-21. The new group consists of:
Heather French
Tiana Williams
Thomas Waltz
Danielle Long
Kait Head.
We were very excited to welcome these fresh, young faces!

Recently, as of March 18th, the LifeJAMS kids have started doing portraits of the Pioneer Ridge residents, taking over where the previous LifeJAMS kids had left off. Each kid is assigned one elderly resident to do a portrait of each Wednesday. Kids can use various mediums, ranging from pencils to pastels, or even doing the portrait on darker paper.

All of the residents and LifeJAMS kids are enjoying this project very much, and look forward to each Wednesday.
