About Breath of Life

Caring for dependent adults for over 2 decades

Our Mission

Breath of Life is a Christian-based non-profit organization that is committed to providing the highest quality of compassionate and affordable care to dependent adults while simultaneously offering respite for their caregivers.

We are here for caregivers, family members, and case managers who need a caring day service for adults in their lives. Adults we care for may have Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia or are suffering from a stroke. We serve adults 55 and older and at the same time help those who need a break from caregiving.

"We care for those who first cared for us"

Providing a Home-like Environment

Our team provides a place for dependent adults to socialize with their peers in a stimulating home-like environment that provides:

  • Independence
  • Security
  • Companionship
  • Health Monitoring
  • Fellowship

All in a caring manner that enhances their self-esteem and quality of life.

Breath of Life is such a wonderful organization. From the great employees who love the clients in their care, they are top notch staff. I’ve been an adult foster Parent for the last 25 years. I was looking for a place that would provide my adult foster client socialization with people her age as well as age-appropriate activities.

Breath of life is such a caring organization; they undertook my need for a break as much as my clients need for a break from our home. They provided lunch and shared transportation. My client truly loved attending Breath of Life.

I would without hesitation send my own family members to them. If I have another client that is appropriate to attend Breath of Life, I will gladly have them participate in their program.
