This program is designed to help those in the faith community understand and support other members of their congregation who may struggle with dementia or who may be caring for someone with dementia. Topics that will be discussed are What is Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, warning signs and what to watch for, and how to become a strong and understanding support system for those within your own congregation.
