Dementia Friends Sessions
Dementia Friends is a global movement that is changing the way people think, act and talk about dementia. This is a free, 60-minute training session offered online and led by Golden Buckeye Center staff trained as Dementia Friends Champions. The sessions are open to the public and may benefit anyone, including family, friends and professionals. Participants will receive a Dementia Friends Ohio Certificate of Completion upon finishing the program.
During this informative and interactive session, you’ll learn:
- how dementia can affect individuals
