Online class begins Wednesday, March 8, 2023

It is clear that changes in thinking, emotions and actions have occurred in a loved one – caused by some form of dementia. It is also clear that you are a dementia caregiver, whether or not there is an official diagnosis.

Family members and professional caregivers will benefit.
