Thanks to the generous support of donors like you, the Capitol Lakes Foundation recently sponsored a memoir writing workshop for Capitol Lakes residents. The six-week workshop, Start Writing Your Life Story, offered a unique opportunity for residents to explore their past, share meaningful experiences, and connect with others through storytelling.

On a spring afternoon in late March Capitol Lakes’ Director of Nursing, Rebecca Durst, yells out “Sarah is not breathing!”  Her team immediately echoes her.  One shouts, “Call 911!” while another responds, “Calling 911”.  Immediately they all spring to action – performing CPR on a training manikin the Capitol Lakes Foundation was able to purchase for them thanks to your support. 

For Capitol Lakes' professional staff, managing the student debt that was necessary to work here can often be a challenge. But thanks you, we are able to help professional staff like Jenna Nelson. Read her story here.
