THE CONVERSATION CAFE – Creating Community and Connectedness
In September 2022, TRUST Inc began a new initiative to create community as we tackle post pandemic isolation and loneliness. We call it “The Conversation Cafe”. We now celebrate TWO YEARS of monthly gatherings! Each gathering includes health & wellness, time to volunteer, conversations, laughter and treats. Facilitated by our Health & Wellness nurse, it is a place to be part of the TRUST Family!
Conversation Cafe has moved to the second Wednesday of each month.
