Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia can leave those with the disease and their care partners feeling isolated. You are not alone. There are other people to share the journey with you!

Support groups offer the opportunity to meet, interact with and learn from others who are living with dementia. It’s a safe environment where you can share, laugh, and help each other through mutual understanding.

All of our support groups are inclusive environments for people of different ethnicities, cultures or persons who identify as part of the 2SLGBTQ+ community.

Current Offerings

We are currently offering in-person sessions in our Provincial (Winnipeg), Westman, Interlake/Eastern and South Central areas. To register, please email the group you choose below or scroll down to your preferred region.
