Connections

     Connections is a group program for persons with early memory loss. Appropriate participants for the program are individuals who have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia and who are no longer driving, but are in the early stages of their illness. The program is funded in part by a grant from the Brookdale Foundation.

     The group currently meets weekly at the All Saints by the Sea Episcopal Church, across the street from Friendship Center, with lunch provided for participants. The program provides participants with a chance to join others experiencing early memory loss. Also provided are memory retention and retraining exercises, and time to share in support group discussions. Music and light exercise round out the day. The program is facilitated by a credentialed professional who has been specially trained as an Early Memory Loss group facilitator by the Brookdale Foundation.

     For more information about the Connections Program, please call Eryn at Friendship Center at (805) 969-0859 or via email to eryn@friendshipcentersb.org. Download the Flyer here.
