For people providing dementia care, there are many resources such as books, brochures, websites and workshops to help improve understanding about dementia and the changes occurring in the brain.  However, it can be hard to disseminate the information and find practical ways for dealing with the daily challenges.  Caregivers need professionals to train them in ways to put basic dementia care concepts into practice and truly problem solve.

The North Central Texas Chapter offers a variety of Caregiver Seminars throughout the year.  Details for upcoming seminars will be posted as each event approaches.  Links are provided below for further details and information.
