Alzheimer’s and other dementias affect an individual’s ability to communicate, with variability across different stages of the disease process. Join us virtually, by telephone or computer device, or in-person (RSVP required) as we learn more about strategies and ways to have meaningful connections with people in early, middle and late-stage dementia. Both verbal and behavioral communication will be explored. Whether you are a caregiver, friend or community member, this program is fitting for all. Presented by: Ginger Gagne. UpBEAT (Be Educated and Active Together) is a program for those aged 55 years and over. Membership is free.
