Our Services & Programs

At Clara’s House & Community Center, we’re building affordable, dignity-first support for people living with memory loss, their caregivers, and our community.

01

Residential Memory Care

A home-like residence for 8–10 residents, with private suites and accessible bathrooms, shared living spaces, a secured courtyard, and 24/7 support. No entry fees; pricing is designed around household income.

02

Weekday Respite Care

Monday–Friday, 6:00 AM–6:00 PM, giving caregivers a trusted daytime option with sliding-scale pricing and Medicaid STAR+PLUS acceptance.

03

Training & Community Support

Caregiver and professional education, support groups, and help connecting families with Medicare, Medicaid, VA benefits, and other resources.

04

The Clara’s Subsidy Fund

Grant- and sponsorship-supported assistance helps make care accessible, so families aren’t turned away because of what they can pay.

How we grow

Start local. Learn deeply. Expand with care.

The foundation will steward day-to-day operations for the first location, listening closely to the families and neighbors it serves. What works in Pleasant Grove can become a thoughtful foundation for future expansion across Dallas.

Healthcare organizations will also have a resource to point families toward when long-term care questions arise one grounded in education, dignity, and a real connection to place.
