BETHESDA, Md., Jan. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Meridian Senior Living is proud to announce the launch of Meridian Rocks 2026, a February community engagement initiative designed to foster connection, promote well-being, and showcase the creativity and service-driven spirit of senior living residents across the country.
Throughout the month of February, residents and team members at Meridian Senior Living communities will paint and decorate small rocks with uplifting messages, colorful designs, and seasonal touches, including hearts, to brighten the days of those who find them. The rocks will be intentionally placed throughout local communities, encouraging discovery, conversation, and meaningful connection.
Each rock will include a phone number on the back, inviting the finder to call, visit the community, meet the resident artist, and receive a small prize. The initiative is designed not only to spark joy, but also to strengthen local relationships with neighbors, professionals, and community leaders.
"Meridian Rocks is about purpose," said Sue Johnston, Vice President of Program Development at Meridian Senior Living. "Our residents are deeply engaged in their communities, and this project allows them to give back in a simple but powerful way through creativity, kindness, and human connection."
Residents and staff are encouraged to document the journey of their rocks by sharing photos of the creation process, placement, and discoveries, as well as images of residents participating in this purpose-driven community service. Communities will also notify local media outlets in advance to highlight the initiative and its impact.
Rocks will be placed throughout local neighborhoods by February 10, giving community members plenty of opportunities to discover a surprise and experience a moment of joy.
Meridian Rocks reflects Meridian Senior Living's broader commitment to holistic well-being by supporting emotional, social, and creative engagement for older adults while strengthening ties with the communities they call home.
