National Assisted Living Week began on Grandparent’s Day, which was Sunday, and continues through Saturday. Many assisted living residents are the people who made significant contributions to our community. They have been the teachers, business people, civic leaders, public officials, parents, and now grandparents, who have contributed so much to Richmond Hill.

This week gives people a chance to honor these residents' contributions, along with staff, families, friends and volunteers of the community.
