Team & Community Development Programs
Because how we care for each other shapes how we care for residents.
Strong communities don’t happen by accident—they’re built through trust, communication, and moments of shared humanity. Christine Walters’ Team and Community Development programs use applied improvisation, laughter, and practical tools to help senior living teams feel more connected, confident, and supported in the work they do every day.
These experiences are designed to meet teams where they are—reducing stress, strengthening relationships, and creating cultures where people feel safe to show up, speak up, and support one another.
Yes, And… Team Communication
Build trust. Improve communication.
Strengthen connection.
Stronger teams create stronger care.
