Clara D Young Legacy Foundation

For families

Caregiving is a lot to hold. You don’t have to make sense of it alone.

Clara D Young Legacy Foundation is building a more personal path for families caring for loved ones affected by Alzheimer’s, dementia, or Parkinson’s starting in Pleasant Grove.

Who we serve

For the people behind the diagnosis, too.

Our work is for families navigating the everyday realities of Alzheimer’s, dementia, or Parkinson’s: changing routines, difficult decisions, and the need for care that honors the person at the center of it all.

The foundation is developing an affordable memory care home and community respite support in Dallas. The vision begins with a small-home setting in Pleasant Grove, where familiar rhythms and human connection can have room to grow.

What families can expect

Clarity, dignity, and room to breathe.

01

A home-like model

The planned memory care home is designed around a small scale, familiar daily life, and specialized support for residents and the people who love them.

02

Respite with respect

Future respite support will create a place for caregivers to pause, tend to their own needs, and return to care with more support around them.

03

Education for real life

Training classes and community learning will make complicated care questions easier to approach, discuss, and carry home.

04

Honest next steps

We will share the vision as it develops, without pretending to have answers about availability, pricing, or care needs before they are ready.
