EVENTS: NADRC Webinar: What We Can Do to Support LGBT Adults Living with Dementia


The National Alzheimer’s and Dementia Resource Center (NADRC) is holding a webinar on [Monday] April 13, “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Dementia Care: What We Can Do to Support LGBT Adults Living with Dementia.”

LGBT older adults may be at greater risk for dementia and yet many services are not designed with LGBT individuals in mind. The San Francisco LGBT Dementia Care Project is an innovative project with the goal of increasing access to dementia-capable care for the LGBT community. The webinar will highlight the importance and challenges of reaching a vital but invisible population and discuss ways individuals and organizations can be more attuned to the needs of LGBT constituents with dementia by adapting policy and programmatic changes.

The webinar is part of the NADRC web seminar series, sponsored by the Administration for Community Living. It is being hosted by the American Society on Aging (ASA).
