Alzheimer’s Caregiver Summit: A Peer-Led Dive into Mood, Memory & More

Join us for the Alzheimer’s Caregiver Summit: A Peer-Led Dive into Mood, Memory & More, a virtual, peer-led event dedicated to empowering caregivers navigating Alzheimer’s and Neuropsychiatric Symptoms (NPS). NPS are the behavioral symptoms like aggression, agitation, hallucinations, and delusions that commonly appear with Alzheimer’s or similar conditions. These symptoms present unique challenges in terms of diagnosis and management.

Moderated by CAN CEO, Marvell Adams Jr., this interactive session features a diverse panel of current and former caregivers sharing lived experience, practical tools, and empathy-driven insights.

You’ll explore specialized resources, connect with caregiving communities, and gain strategies for improving communication and care outcomes. With targeted breakouts and expert support, the Summit is designed to meet caregivers where they are and move them forward with confidence.
