Join us for a supportive and festive workshop designed to help families and caregivers navigate the holiday season with confidence, compassion, and joy. Our Positive Approach to Care (PAC) session will offer practical techniques for connecting with loved ones living with dementia, reducing stress, and creating meaningful moments during holiday gatherings. 

Enjoy helpful insights, real-life strategies, and gentle guidance to make the season smoother and more enjoyable for everyone. Whether you’re preparing for family visits, celebrations, or everyday routines, this workshop will equip you with tools to approach the holidays with understanding, patience, and warmth. 

Let’s make this season brighter—together. 

Meet Our Speakers

Leandra Sims, PAC Mentor, spearheaded the incredible campaign to make The Kensington the first PAC-Designated Community in California, putting in hours and hours of extra work, love and training. She now shares the magic of PAC with other Kensington communities through hands-on PAC training sessions. 

Jackie Mills is a PAC-Certified Consultant & Director of Assisted Living at The Kensington Reston. From the experiences of family members living with dementia, Jackie changed her passion and focus to senior living.  Jackie came to The Kensington a year ago fully embracing the Kensington promise. As the Assisted Living Manager Jackie seeks to live out the promise of loving and caring for the residents as her own family. 

This holiday season, share in the joy of Our Promise to love and care for your family as we do our own. Reach out to us to learn more and let us help make your spirits bright!
