Living with Alzheimer's
Cost: Free
The diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease is life-changing and leads to many questions. What will this mean for me and my family? How do I plan for the future? Where can I get the help I need?
Living with Alzheimer’s: For People with Early Stage Alzheimer’s or Related Dementias and a simultaneous class, Living with Alzheimer’s: For Care Partners of the Early Stage Person, is an interactive three-part program where you will have a chance to hear from others who have been where you are. Those with the disease as well as care partners will learn what they need to know, what they need to plan and what they can do to navigate this chapter of their lives. The program consists of three 2-hour sessions.
