The Rainbow Adult Day Health Care (ADHC) opened in May 2018 in Lynn, Massachusetts. The adult daycare program focuses on older adults. They offer the following services such as medical services, social work services, nutrition services, alternative therapies, exercise programs, transportation services, daily activities, and recreational therapy. The Senior Support Group Program is facilitated with video chat and in-person at ADHC. The project’s goals focus on reducing depressive symptoms, decreasing social isolation, and improving social skills such as communication with peers and collaboration.
