Support

Living with Alzheimer's disease or related dementia can be incredibly demanding and isolating for those with the disease and their care partners. Changes caused by the disease can make day-to-day life challenging, but you do not have to be alone. Your experience can be made easier if you have information and support.

How we support people living with Alzheimer's disease:

  • Individual Support: Talk to our support staff in person, on the phone or by email.
  • Dementia Education: Opportunities like our Learning Series help people with dementia, family and friends live as well as possible with the disease. Check out upcoming opportunities
  • Support Groups: We offer Family Support Groups for care partners. These groups provide a safe environment where you can learn, laugh and help each other through mutual understanding. Learn more.
