The Friends of WLRC is a group of parents, guardians, family, friends, concerned citizens and businesses who have come together to support clients residing at WLRC in Lander, WY. The Friends of WLRC is a non-profit organization formed to help provide support and a voice for those who can not speak for themselves. WLRC provides exceptional care for our loved ones, and the Friends of WLRC want to support the cause of care for all those associated with WLRC -- the residents, the care providers, and the families.
One of the first projects being taken on is the furnishing and opening of a handicapped accessible residence for families and friends to use when visiting their loved one. WLRC has been gracious to make accommodations available at Wilson Manor for families visiting, but it is not handicapped accessible. The newest superintendents housing has been vacant for 2-1/2 years, and IS handicapped accessible. When this project is complete, there will be 2 buildings available for family and friends to use when visiting.
We would like to thank the corporate sponsors of Friends of WLRC. Your sponsorship is important to help us help WLRC! Many of you are local businesses who see the clients visiting from time to time and understand the level of care required to better their standard of living. Some of you are not local businesses, but care about the quality of life and the quality of care for those at WLRC. Your sponsorship will help with the many projects planned by Friends of WLRC.
Again, thank you!
