HANCI Grand Reopening
January 7, 2010 ... 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.
On January 7, some 200 people converged on HANCI's headquarters at 1302 Main Street in Niagara Falls to see the results of the agency's $2 million renovation and expansion project. The project upgraded HANCI's offices, while creating the future home of Complete Senior Care. Scheduled to open in late 2010, Complete Senior Care will provide comprehensive medical and social services to keep frail elders living at home instead of going into nursing homes.
Photos of the opening event are below. Videos are here.
