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.
