Alzheimer’s Caregiver Workshop in Hot Springs July 28

Preparations are underway for the 2023 Hot Springs Hope CARE Workshop to be held July 28, 2023, at the National Park College. The workshop is an annual event held in cities throughout the state through which the local nonprofit Alzheimer’s Arkansas provides FREE education, training, and support to those caring for a loved one with dementia. The workshop provides general information regarding Alzheimer’s disease and its progression, tools, knowledge, and techniques to improve caregiving skills. Through the support of local vendors and sponsors, the workshop is completely free for caregivers.

In order to ensure the event is accessible for all caregivers, the organization is offering mini-grants to help offset some of the cost of care on the day of the event. Attendees can fill out a simple form and receive some respite care reimbursement shortly after the workshop.

For more information, to register, or to inquire about the grant, contact Alzheimer’s Arkansas by calling 501-224-0021. To register for the workshop, visit https://secure.givelively.org/event/alzheimer-s-arkansas/hope-care-workshop-2023-hot-springs. Sponsorships are still available.
