Through Let’s Talk, persons with early stage dementia are linked through a supervised telephone peer support program to share information and coping strategies, reduce social isolation, and provide emotional support. The program provides a supportive environment where people can talk freely about the effects of dementia on their lives. Let’s Talk, our newest program for persons with early-stage memory loss, allows people with early-stage memory loss to share their experiences, challenges and coping skills with others.

Let's Talk is looking for volunteers (who also have early stage-memory loss) to make friendly calls to others with While Let's Talk serves persons throughout our entire 38-county service area, volunteers need to be able to travel to the Alzheimer’s Association’s chapter office at 9374 Olive Blvd. in St. Louis County. Those who would like to be call recipients should be residents of Missouri or Illinois.

Let's Talk is an ongoing program and individuals wishing to recieve calls can begin participating at any time! We are currently accepting referrals for Let’s Talk.
For more information or to make a referral, please contact the Alzheimer's Association, St. Louis Chapter, 314.432.3422 or 800.272.3900.
