On Wednesday, February 27, Summit High School 9th grade students visited and interviewed SAGE Eldercare’s Spend-A-Day Adult Day Health Center clients in Summit as part of an English project.  The students recently read “Speak” by Laurie Halse Anderson and are now in the process of working on a creative writing assignment to give “voice” to someone else by writing an inner-monologue.  

Pictured left to right are Gary West, SAGE Spend-A-Day client David Cates, Morgan Strabley, Callyn Cass, Paul Fineman and Robert Fowkes.  To learn more about SAGE Eldercare’s services which support nearly 7,000 older adults, families and caregivers in Essex, Morris, Union and Somerset Counties, call 908.273.5550 or visit www.sageeldercare.org
