Event Description:

This program, co-sponsored by the Alzheimer's Association and West Marin Senior Services, is designed to provide practical information and resources to help dementia caregivers learn to decode verbal and behavioral messages from people with dementia. The goals of the program are for participants to better understand the changes in communication that occur with disease progression and how they manifest in the person with dementia, and to be able to identify ways to connect at each stage of the diseases.

Registration is requested--please call the Alzheimer's Association at (415) 472-4340 to reserve your space.
