Do you know someone who is experiencing memory loss or other cognitive decline? Is someone in your life affected by Alzheimer’s disease or other related dementia? Join this presentation to learn more about the free services and programs offered by local organization Alzheimer’s San Diego to support those affected by these diseases and their caregivers.
