Joining me for this conversation are Dr. Dave Handy (Executive Director) and Mindy Towler (Program Director) of the Alzheimer's Project. The Alzheimer's Project is a powerful resource that provides "no-cost" support for individuals with memory disorders and their caregivers.

From support groups and counseling to Day Respite Social Clubs that give caregivers time to breath, in-home respite to educational programs that equips you for the journey.

This is real help. Real community. Real relief.

You don’t have to do this alone. Tune in and find out how you can get the support you need.💜
