Adoption & Foster CareGeneral InterestWhen children enter foster care, we provide them with safe and nurturing foster homes. Our goal is to ensure their well-being while their families receive the necessary support. We offer a range of services, including respite care, short-term and long-term placements, and foster-to-adopt options. As a licensed adoption agency, we are dedicated to helping youth and parents find permanent family settings. All our services are provided free of charge. Foster and adoptive parents come from diverse backgrounds—some work from home or an office, some own or rent their homes, and some have large families or none at all. Regardless of their circumstances, the impact they make is extraordinary. This class will outline the licensing process, required training, and what to expect when a child is placed in your home, and it will provide an opportunity for you to ask questions. Nexus-Kindred is a non-profit, private agency committed to placing children from all counties and tribes in Minnesota.Fall 2024

Brain Enhancement Dancing for SeniorsDanceThe Brain Enhancement Dancing (B.E.D.) program is a Ballroom Dance program created by professional dance instructor, Walter “Bear” Hartell specifically to decrease the risk of dementia by up to 76%. As reported in the New England Journal of Medicine, a 21-year study shows that ballroom dancing has the highest risk reduction for dementia and Alzheimer’s disease than any other activity. For those already experiencing the effects of dementia, researchers have seen an improvement in memory in seniors. Ballroom dancing is also being used to benefit those with Parkinson’s disease. B.E.D. classes focus on rapid fire decision making, concentration, memory, multitasking movements, strengthening balance, and enhancing physical stamina, with all the additional benefits of dancing while enjoying a fun social activity. Singles and Couples are encouraged to sign up. Wear comfortable loose-fitting clothing. Bring or wear shoes that are not slippery.Fall 2024
