As a proud community partner of the Waterbury Health Department, we're sharing this important resource for caregivers and individuals living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.

If you or someone you know is caring for a loved one with memory loss, support, education, and helpful resources are available. Please see the flyer below for more information and ways to connect with services in our community.

Together, we can help ensure that individuals living with dementia and their caregivers have access to the support they need.

🎉 Waterbury Youth Services is proud to announce the Grand Opening and Expansion of our Youth & Family Emergency Services, Closet of Care-A space intentionally designed to better serve youth and families with compassion, dignity, and care.

As the needs of our community continue to grow, we have expanded our Closet of Care to serve youth up to age 24 and families with youth up to age 24. This expansion was thoughtfully created to provide a family-friendly, department-store style experience, allowing families to access essential items in a welcoming and respectful environment that preserves dignity while meeting real needs.

🗓 Grand Opening: March 20 at 10 AM
📅 Open every 3rd Friday
📍 83 Prospect Street, Waterbury

Families will be able to access essentials including:
🧥 Clothing
🛍 Food
🧼 Hygiene products
…and other items that support stability and well-being.

At Waterbury Youth Services, we believe that how support is provided matters just as much as the support itself. Our goal is to ensure every young person and family who walks through our doors feels valued, respected, and cared for.
