SUMMARY:Meeting Communities Where They Are: Innovative Approaches to Dementia Supports and Services
DESCRIPTION:Addressing the unique support and service needs of communities is central to effective home- and community-based dementia care. While many dementia-specific interventions are grounded in research and best practices\, they often require thoughtful adaptation to effectively reach underserved populations. Supports and services for people living with dementia\, their caregivers\, and their communities are most impactful when tailored to reflect cultural values\, language\, and lived experiences. \nThis webinar will feature two specialized\, community-based dementia programs\, each focused on an underserved population—African American and Korean American communities. Both programs have adapted their approaches to reduce barriers to service acceptance\, increase engagement\, and address unmet needs. Together\, they will demonstrate strategies for delivering strengths-based\, dementia-specific services and supports while navigating and overcoming challenges. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Can Do! Reframing Dementia Support and Education to Focus on Strengths and Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Living well with dementia is deeply influenced by the mindsets of both people living with dementia and their caregivers. Learning to Live with Dementia is a new support and education program model that combines a structured series of brief lessons with facilitated group sessions designed for people living with dementia and for caregivers to reflect on and share their experiences. \nThis innovative approach promotes a shift in perspective—focusing on what people can do to live well with dementia and providing practical strategies to support that goal. In this webinar\, participants will learn about this strengths-based support and education program\, hear inspirational stories\, and gain new perspectives designed to reframe both the dementia journey and the caregiving experience. Participants will also be introduced to the Learning to Live with Dementia Facilitator Toolkit\, a resource developed to strengthen facilitator skills\, confidence\, and capacity to deliver structured\, group-based education and engagement. \nRegister
