Minds in Motion is KANDU’s newest community-based day habilitation program, designed to help seniors improve self-help, adaptive skills, and independence.

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

We wanted to share a little slice of life from our ISP program with you today. KANDU client Tim is playing "Humble and Kind" on the piano, a song our clients in ISP listen to every day before they start work!
We are so grateful for this grant funding from Janesville Morning Rotary Club, Janesville Noon Rotary Club, Edgerton Wi Rotary Club, and Rotary Club of Beloit and the donation match from Rotary District 6250! Thanks to their generosity and support, our clients will be able to enjoy the beautiful ...outdoors with the safety and protection of a fully accessible pavilion on our new campus. We truly appreciate the Rotarians' dedication to uplifting and supporting the community, creating a better world for all!

Today, Neil Ogden and Phil Halas from Fitzgerald Equipment Company, Inc. delivered a brand-new electronic pallet jack that KANDU won in a drawing during last week’s Rock County fair. Fitzgerald Equipment is a family-owned and operated business that provides high quality materials handling ...equipment and products throughout Illinois and Wisconsin. We were excited to show them around our new building, giving them a demonstration of the different production and assembly work we do. We also provided them with a glimpse of the programs we offer here at KANDU. Our new pallet jack has us thrilled, and we are grateful for our new connection with Fitzgerald.
