An associate at The Hacienda at the River® was recently featured in an article published by McKnight's Senior Living for her innovative approach to enhancing wellness throughout the community.

After returning from a trip to Japan, Community Life Director Brit Wieland began incorporating what she learned abroad in her classes and workshops. From floral arrangement to silk dyeing classes, she hopes members find creativity, purpose, and a sense of community in all that they do.

“We’re not just individuals; we’re part of a community within a community, where belonging and connection are vital to our well-being,” she explained. “When we create opportunities to look both inward and outward, we cultivate not just longevity, but vitality, joy, and a deeper sense of belonging — and feel that’s what truly sustains us.”

The Hacienda at the River is an award-winning senior living community in the Catalina Foothills of Tucson. With engaging adult education, holistic wellness offerings, and memorable social events, members lead a vibrant lifestyle filled with positivity and purpose.
