EXPAND

Friendly and diverse, there’s an easy air of camaraderie among the residents. You’ll find them in the dining room, by the fountain tending to the roses, or on the hiking trail. Seeking the restorative energy of the sea, they’ve brought their great histories with them and some have started afresh.

For residents, by residents

Our communities are full of passionate people. To celebrate that, we started Shine!, a life enrichment program. It’s all about getting in touch with the passions and unique skills of the individuals who make up our communities and giving everyone the space to be a teacher … and a student. Through this program, we invite everyone to tell us what is important and interesting to them, and then we make those experiences happen.

Volunteer

Help run the Newcomers Committee or bring your expertise to event planning or care giving. Whatever your specialty or passion is, your assistance is greatly appreciated. Having residents and locals as volunteers is the best way to get people engaged and ensure that Casa de Mañana stays true to the people who live here.

If you’re interested in learning more about the variety of opportunities here, please contact Life Enrichment Director Veronicah Cohen at 858.456.4122 or via email at vcohen@frontporch.net.
