Press Release
The Western New York Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association and the Home Assistance Referral Team invite Niagara County caregivers to a holiday gathering from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 4, at HART’s office inside First Presbyterian Church, 505 Cayuga St., Lewiston.
This free event will include discussions on how caregivers can navigate the busy holiday season while also caring for someone living with Alzheimer’s or dementia.
“At the Alzheimer’s Association, we know the holiday season can be stressful, as well as joyous, when a loved one has dementia,” says Andrea Koch, director of community engagement for the WNY Chapter. “This program will offer creative strategies to adapt family traditions to ensure the holidays remain enjoyable and meaningful for all.
“In addition, participants can enjoy a build-your-own hot chocolate bar and then stroll the Lewiston Christmas Walk after the program ends.”
The first 20 registrants are eligible to receive a free home safety kit.
Individuals can register by calling 800-272-3900 or online at bit.ly/LewHolidays2024.
