St. Ann Center provides community-based services for children and frail adults and to serve as support for caregivers. Meeting the spiritual, psychological, social, and physical needs of all who participate is central to the St. Ann mission.

 

Since 1998, the Marjorie L. Christiansen Foundation has supported St. Ann Center's respite and care programs.

 

As an example of what St. Ann Center offers, a woman adapting to life in a wheelchair after losing her legs and feeling depressed found joy at St. Ann. On her first day, unprompted, a two-year-old child climbed into her lap and fell asleep. This moment of pure, unhesitating connection is what MLC supports.
