    Greater East Ohio Alzheimer’s and Dementia Support Groups

    Greater East Ohio Alzheimer’s and Dementia Support Groups
    The Alzheimer’s Association holds local support groups for caregivers and individuals living with Alzheimer's and other dementias across Northeast Ohio. The Association works to bring care and support to every community so that no one has to face dementia alone. Support groups create a safe, confidential and supportive environment. They also allow participants to develop mutual support and social relationships.

    Trained volunteer facilitators lead support groups virtually and in person. All support groups are free. See a listing of our current support groups or call the Greater East Ohio Chapter at 330.966.7343 to find a resource near you.
     

    Caregiver support groups

    Our caregiver support groups offer comfort, reassurance, practical advice and a community of people who are facing similar challenges. These meetings are for unpaid family members or friends caring for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease, another dementia or a related disorder. People who attend should be comfortable and open to discussing their experience in a group setting.

    Support group details are updated regularly and subject to change. Please call our 24/7 Helpline at 800.272.3900 to confirm dates, times and locations or to register for any group. Please note that our caregiver support groups are not appropriate for professionals or paid caregivers.
