Dementia Friends in Birchdale Nov 16

Residents of the area are invited to a Dementia Friends training following a fellowship potluck at the Birchdale Community Center at noon on Wednesday, Nov. 16. Koochiching Aging Options will offer the free one-hour community training following lunch. Participants become a Dementia Friend, learning a bit about what it is like to live with dementia and then turning that learning into action.
Dementia Friends is an initiative of ACT on Alzheimer’s, a statewide collaborative promoting better understanding and action around the growing incidence of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.

Those with questions may contact Koochiching Aging Options at (218) 283-7030 or (800) 950-4630.
