Caregiver Education

The goal of our Education Programs is to provide caregivers, families and friends with the emotional support and education they need to better understand and manage Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia so they can have the best days possible.

We offer our well-received monthly webinars led by staff and/or guest speakers with expertise in dementia care as well as legal and financial planning. In addition we offer live programs on various dementia related topics.

Registration for these programs is required. As always, our Helpline (1-888-280-6055) is available Monday – Friday, 8am – 5pm.

  • Healthy Brain Habits: Strategies to Improve Brain Health

    Offered By Webinar and Telephone Conference

    Currently, there is no surefire way to prevent dementia, but there is growing research that shows we can potentially reduce our risk for dementia by addressing lifestyle factors. This program explores what brain health is as well as the difference between modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors for dementia. This program also describes practical, evidence-based lifestyle strategies - such as exercise, sleep, and social engagement - that can help support brain health over time.
