Join us as we'll help you with research, as well as treatment and caregiver support for your loved ones with Dementia. Featured speakers include Jane Bardavid, LCSW, the director of the Samuel Field Y's Community Advisory Program for Elderly, Jed Levine, MA, the executive vice president and director of Programs and Services Alzheimer's Association (NYC chapter), and Joan Serrano Laufer, LCSW, who is the executive director of the Queensboro Council for Social Welfare.
With a growing population of seniors dealing with the onset of
dementia and all the ensuing challenges, it is crucial for caregivers to be as
educated as possible in order to provide their loved ones with the support and
care they need. An estimated 5.2 million Americans of all ages have Alzheimer’s
disease, and 80 percent of their care is provided by unpaid caregivers, usually
family members.
