This is June Yasuhara, who has moved her parents to Japantown, where the neighborhood is familiar and friends are plentiful. During last year’s Halloween, June organized a special trick or treating area for her parents and other seniors, so they could enjoy handing out candy and seeing all the kids in costume. (Members of the community donated over 12,000 pieces of candy that they were able to hand out!). https://www.nextavenue.org/caregiver-for-parents-with-dem/
