Are you a caregiver for someone with Alzheimer's disease or another type of dementia?  We will all need some support during this caregiver journey. Maria Tomasetti, South Central Regional Director, Alzheimer's Association, CT Chapter, will share caregiver resources available through the Alzheimer's Association, Agencies on Aging in Connecticut, and the Department of Veterans Affairs. These caregiver resources will include programs that can help to pay for care as well as other important programs and services for caregivers.

Registration is required for this program online and will be conducted through Zoom. To download Zoom, visit your app store or download from Zoom.us to register for a free account. Note: Prior to the event, you will receive a reminder email with the Zoom meeting details and link.
