In this free session, you’ll learn the basics of dementia—what causes it, how it shows up, and how it changes over time. We’ll talk about how it affects memory, behavior, and communication, and share simple, caring ways to support your loved one. Our goal is to help you feel more confident and connected as you care for someone living with dementia.
