Remodeling
The adult day care program moved with 30 clients to the newly remodeled Leandra and St. Francis Hall in the basement of St. Francis Convent.
Our history is planted deep in Franciscan values: making peace, reverencing all creation, showing compassion and creating a caring community.
The Sisters of St. Francis of Assisi brought these values to Milwaukee in 1849 and to St. Ann Center for Intergenerational Care 134 years later. Today, this dynamic heritage continues to grow into a ministry with a vision. St. Ann Center—its staff, volunteers, clients and benefactors—live the mission of the Franciscan Sisters, to create a better world for the people in our neighborhoods, communities and around the globe. Whether it’s being and working with children, the frail elderly or adults with disabilities, we strive to be people of faith touching a world in need.
St. Ann Adult Day Care, founded by Sr. Edna Lonergan, opened in the basement of the health center of the Sisters of St. Francis of Assisi (now Juniper Court).
