Support Group for Care Partners of People Living with Young Onset Dementia
Understanding challenges unique to young onset.
When symptoms of dementia start before the age of 65, we use the term young onset dementia. This group offers support and guidance to those caring for someone living with young onset dementia.
How this group can benefit you
Families impacted by young onset dementia often face unique challenges related to changes associated with the disease, employment, raising children, money matters and future plans.
This support group offers a welcoming environment where you can:
- Exchange mutual support with other care partners managing the unique challenges related to young onset dementia
- Learn strategies for coping with difficult situations like changes in your relationship, increased responsibilities related to the family and providing care while continuing to be employed
- Increase your knowledge and understanding of young onset dementia
