On Wednesdays at Hamtramck’s Veterans Park: Members of Peoples Community Services – one of our “Strides for Seniors” partners – participate in the self-directed “Walk With Ease” program. In addition to walking, Peoples’ Wellness Manager Leslie Minard leads the group through a series of stretching exercises. Located on the south end of Hamtramck, a diverse community of long-time residents and recent immigrants, Peoples offers a variety of services and has several classrooms used for arts and crafts, adult education, and meetings. The Senior Day Time Center, founded in 1977, is a full service agency staffed by caring medical and social work professionals – offering food, friendship and care.
