This program is designed to help adult children understand Alzheimer’s disease and other age-related types of dementia so they can help their parents manage these diseases and choose the resources and supports that best help their aging parents and themselves. Program topics will include memory assessment, non-medical caregiving options, supports, and emerging research, and strategies for securing resources and support for those experiencing memory loss.
