If you are living with MCI or dementia you are invited to a Meeting of the Minds. It is a series of seven (7) Zoom meetings that will discuss the dementia journey including the days when changes were first noticed, the diagnosis experience, coming to terms with the diagnosis, sharing the diagnosis with others, living your best life, and more.
Newly diagnosed or living with dementia for a long time?
The Meeting of the Minds series is great for both persons newly diagnosed as well as persons who have been living with dementia for a long time. Together we will explore the dementia journey and learn from each other.
Do I have to attend the entire series?
Attending the entire series will be most beneficial; however, you are welcome to attend as you are able.
Please note each session is repeated. This is to keep the groups small enough for meaningful discussion. It is best if you can attend either session A or B each time so that you get to know others in the group. However, please attend as you are able.

If you are living with MCI or dementia, you are invited to our summer mini-series. We will discuss what has made some vacations successes and others that have been challenging. Of course, this will be unique for each person, but we will explore things like a cruise, camping, hotel stays, and more. We will also explore ideas for Staycations… what people have done for fun in their own communities or close to home. We will create tips for care partner support. This discussion will include preparations and packing as well as decompressing when returning home. Please note each session is repeated. This is to keep the groups small enough for meaningful discussion. It is best if you can attend either session A or B each time so that you get to know others in the group. However, please attend as you are able.
