About this Event

Caring for someone with dementia can be challenging, but you don’t have to do it alone. This engaging and insightful event, led by dementia care expert Staci Hannah (Founder of Graceful Journey Atlanta and former Georgia Dementia Team Lead), is designed to educate, connect, and uplift caregivers at all stages.

During this session, you will:

  • Share Your Story: Participate in a guided focus group and connect with other caregivers navigating similar experiences.
  • Caregiver Testimonies: Learn from fellow caregivers as they share how they’ve overcome real-life challenges.
  • Solve the Puzzle: Take part in a hands-on activity exploring the “Six Pieces of the Puzzle” of dementia care.
  • Your Village: Learn how to build a support system that works for you
  • Walk in Their Shoes: Engage in an immersive experience to better understand what individuals with dementia go through.
