Alzheimer’s Disease & the LGBTQ+ Community Conference

June 28, 2019 @ 8:30 AM - 12:00 PM

Alzheimer’s does not discriminate. It affects every race, religion, education level, gender and income bracket. The number of aging adults who identify as LGBTQ is predicted to grow tremendously, nearly doubling by 2060. Experts recognize several health disparities in this population and the social isolation or stigmatization they face as they age which can impact how Alzheimer’s disease symptoms manifest.

Let’s get back to basics by learning the facts around Alzheimer’s disease. What is it? How are people affected? What is being done to stop this disease? How can I make a difference? Participate in the discussion with experts to explore the disease and how the community can support each other.

Free but registration is required.
