Connect with others
If someone you care about is suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or a related dementia, there is something you can do to help them and yourself. Plan to visit an Alzheimer’s Association Caregiver Support Group this month.
Monthly support
Groups offer vital links to other caregivers and an opportunity to learn more about caring for a loved one with dementia. Group members support and encourage each other while also exchanging practical information and resources.
Alzheimer's Association caregiver support groups are designed for the loved ones of individuals with dementia.
Support groups meet monthly to provide caregivers with an opportunity to share their experiences and receive support from others coping with Alzheimer’s disease. There is no cost or commitment to attend. If you have questions about support groups in general, please call the Helpline at 800.272.3900.
