Lifesharing

Mainstay’s Lifesharing caregivers open their homes and hearts to persons in need. Mainstay Life Services works with those who are interested in providing a place where people can call home and enjoy the love of a family.

Mainstay’s Lifesharing Program increases growth and development, improves self-esteem, and most importantly, provides the love of an extended family.

The needs and preferences of the provider, as well as the person seeking support will always be considered.  Interviews are arranged for initial face-to-face meetings through the Director of Community Services.
