Azheimer's Forum on September 27th

An Alzheimer’s Community Forum will be hosted by the Whitehall Community Library on Tuesday, September 27 from 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM. Join the forum for a listening session on Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and memory loss.

This forum is designed with you in mind. Hear a brief overview of Alzheimer’s, dementia, and memory loss as well as local resources available to you. Alzheimer’s Association Montana Chapter, Jefferson County Public Health, Jefferson Public Libraries, and Healthy Communities Coalition welcome your thoughts on how we can better meet your needs in the community.

Registration is requested. Call (406) 318-8242 or email meawilliams@alz.org or call the Library at 406-287-3763 so they can plan accordingly. A light lunch will be provided. If you are a caregiver and need to bring a family member, please feel free to do so.

A bonus session, Adults Caring for Adults, will begin at 12:45 PM and go until 1:45 PM. Being a caregiver to a loved one is one of the most important roles you may ever play. No matter where you are in the caregiver journey, having a plan will make the process easier. Your instructor, LaDawn Whiteside, AARP Montana Caregiver Consultant, will provide resources, share experiences, and lead the discussion.
