We're ALZ in this Together: Destigmatizing Dementia in Addison County
Tuesday, March 28th at 10:30AM
Vergennes Congregational Church, 30 South Water Street, Vergennes
Hosted by Age Well, Vergennes Area Seniors and the Alzheimer's Association-Vermont Chapter.
Join Vermonters with Alzheimer's and other dementias, family caregivers, service providers, Alzheimer's Association staff, and community members to destigmatize dementia in Addison county.
We will start with a short program on the 10 warning signs of dementia. Following that we will have a group conversation about:
· What is it like to be diagnosed, live, and care for someone with Alzheimer's or another dementia
· What services are available in Vermont and in your community
· Your ideas to make Addison County more dementia friendly
· How you can get involved with the fight to end Alzheimer's and all other dementias
This event is free and open to the public, including those with dementia.
Stay for a noon Age Well lunch of cheese tortellini, a blend of green and black beans, wheat bread, an orange, and milk. $5 suggested donation. Anyone having lunch must fill out an Age Well registration form.
