Become a Dementia Friend

April 6, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Free

Attend a 90-minute Dementia Friends Information Session at 7 pm Thursday April 6 at the Hopkinton Center for the Arts. The session is suitable for adults of all ages and children in middle school and older. You’ll learn the five key messages, the different types of dementia and their impact, what it’s like to live with dementia, and the small things you can do to make a difference. You’ll also learn about the extensive resources and support that is available to help people with dementia have a fulfilling life.

Turn your new understanding of dementia into practical action that can help someone with dementia living in our community. Actions can be as big or as small as you choose – because every action counts! Everybody can help make their community a safer and supportive place for people living with dementia and their care partners.

Please reserve your seats by calling the Hopkinton Senior Center (508) 497-9730. The session is open to residents of all towns. If you have questions or want additional information, please contact Sam Docknevich at sdocknevich@gmail.com.
