Marian Manor Residents Participate in The Legacy Sessions

The Legacy Sessions, a project by Senior Living Guide of Hampton Roads, won the 2^nd Place Award of $3,000 for the Best Practices competition from the Commonwealth’s Council on Aging. The effort brought together 32 theater students from Salem High School with residents from Marian Manor Assisted Living, both in Virginia Beach, to promote understanding and appreciation of older adults. We also received a certificate of recognition from Governor Ralph S. Northam signifying the month of May as Older Virginians Month in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
