Our charming 66-apartment community has a technology rich and purposeful design to support residents through all life stages.

Our Pathways of Purpose program ensures that residents are not just living with dementia, but living life to the fullest.  Porter Place understands that our residents seek a sense of purpose and want opportunities to be themselves, spend time with others, have fun, make a difference, find balance and grow.  We do this through understanding who our residents were, are and who they want and will continue to be.

Meet Our Executive Director, Laporsha Chavers

Welcome to Porter Place!

My passion for older individuals with dementia began while helping to care for my grandmothers, both of whom had developed dementia later in their lives. Working my way through college as a dietary aid for a senior living community during college deepened that connection to seniors.

I am now in the process of pursuing a Ph.D. in Psychology which, along with valuable hands-on personal experience, has been influential in understanding the unique needs of every individual I serve. I have been profoundly influenced by our wonderful residents, learning invaluable lessons in empathy, compassion, and personalized care.

It is a privilege to collaborate with the dedicated team here at Porter Place, where our collective mission revolves around protecting, engaging, and loving our residents as cherished family members.

I’d like to extend a heartfelt invitation to come visit us and experience the warmth and compassion of our community at Porter Place. We eagerly await the opportunity to learn your story and showcase our commitment to providing unparalleled care and support.
