Early-Stage Memory Loss
Early treatment, which may include medications, cognitive training, and therapy can slow the progression of the disease and maintain mental function longer.
Adult Day Program
OPICA creates a structured, socially engaging environment that enables adults with memory loss to avoid isolation and provides respite to the family caregiver. OPICA is now open!
OPICAcares Program
OPICAcares is a no-cost field-based program for people living with memory loss, and for those that care for them, in Los Angeles County. Our goal is to provide support and resources to help improve quality of life for both the person with memory loss and their caregiver. We offer resources, information and training for caregivers and provide activities for those with memory loss.
Virtual Programs
OZ – OPICA on Zoom, is a daily interactive program for older adults. OZ engages seniors with activities including exercise, cultural adventures, cognitive activities, art activities, and musical engagement and performances.

A GIFT OF HOPE
“OPICA gave my mother Edna her dignity and joy again. The scholarship we received made that possible.”
When Edna lost her home in the devastating Eaton fires, she lost

determined to find a space where her mother could thrive – be cared
for and feel a sense of purpose and connection. That’s when they found
OPICA. Click to read more
