ALZHEIMER’S CAREGIVER SUPPORT GROUP & EDUCATION

Choice in Aging, in partnership with the Alzheimer’s Association, is proud to present two FREE monthly support groups for caregivers and their families. The meetings address relevant and different topics each session. Navigating the life changing diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias can be overwhelming, but we are here to help! The Group strives to answer the tough questions whether you are an old hand at caregiving or just starting on the journey. The focus is learning, sharing, planning and invariably laughing!
