Conferences are designed for family and professional caregivers and are offered three to five times per year throughout the Chapter service territory. Both full and half day programs are offered, usually at modest fees to attendees. Alzheimer's Association conferences address cutting edge issues and treatments, as well as practical and effective ways to care for persons with dementia in the home and in congregate settings. Past conferences have been designed for those in the faith community, staff in long term care facilities and family caregivers.
