It can be difficult for primary caregivers to provide the social interactions their elderly loved ones need to truly thrive, mainly due to barriers including costs, lack of resources, the ability to physically support them, and transportation. KANDU’s Minds in Motion program provides opportunities for aging adults to increase physical movement, maintain cognitive abilities, and create social relationships, all leading to better mental and physical health outcomes. KANDU’s model of care is activity-based rather than medical. Our client service team works cooperatively with each participant and their support system to assess individual needs and develop team based activities designed to reach specific goals.

You or your loved one will spend 80% of the time with KANDU engaged in community activities like:

  • Park and trail exploration
  • Civic centers, libraries & recreational facilities
  • Shopping
  • Volunteering
  • Dining
  • Movies
  • And more

Our Minds in Motion program had a delightful and relaxing morning spent inside the cozy atmosphere of Ms. Potts Coffee Shop. The clients enjoyed a warm and comforting cup of hot chocolate or coffee while engaging in meaningful conversations and strengthening their interpersonal connections with one... another. It was a wonderful opportunity for everyone to unwind, connect, and enjoy some quality time together.

If you're in the area and need your coffee fix, stop by Ms. Potts Coffee Shop! Enjoy a delicious cup of coffee while making a difference. Your purchase at Ms. Potts Coffee Shop helps advance our mission. We hope to see you soon!

We are so excited to see the progress made on our new pavilion! This project wouldn't be possible without the help of Janesville Noon Rotary Club, Janesville Morning Rotary Club, Edgerton Wi Rotary Club, and Rotary Club of Beloit. We are incredibly grateful for the overwhelming support we ...have received from the community.

This pavilion will provide our clients a comfortable shelter for outdoor activities once the weather warms up. We can't wait for the pavilion to be completed and to enjoy the fresh air in the new space!

With an aging generation that is expected to more than double in the next decade, many families are looking for daytime resources for a loved one with memory care issues. Clients in KANDU’s day services/memory care program spend their day socializing, building friendships, going on community ...outings, completeing arts and crafts, and more.

These activities are provided alongside day-to-day care administered by KANDU's professional staff. We aim to create a home-like enviornment where individuals can thrive in a family-like atmosphere.
