5 to Thrive at 2019 NAAP Conference
Our NAAP Conference is taking place the first week of April and we have an opportunity to support a community need in Charleston. Lutheran Homes of South Carolina has implemented a customer service initiative called “5 to Thrive”. This program supports their employees, referred to as teammates, to promote excellent customer service and build respect and honor toward residents, visitors, and teammates; plus, the community at large. The Life Enrichment department at Franke at Seaside has teamed up with this committee to support “One80Place” (previously known as Crisis Ministries), the Charleston shelter for the homeless and local veterans and their families. The local Charleston NAAP members have asked us to join in their goal to provide the following items that are so desperately needed for their community. Please do what you can to help when you come to Charleston! There will be drop off locations at the Conference Registration Desk for your donations. Activity Professionals – Thank You for being the “Exceptional People” that you ARE!
