Join the National Alzheimer’s and Dementia Resource Center (NADRC) for “Sharing the Care for Families Dealing with Alzheimer’s Disease or Related Dementias: Alabama’s PANDA Project.” The PANDA Project (Providing Alzheimer’s N’ Dementia Assistance) was piloted in 2019 with funding provided by ACL.  

PANDA provides supportive services, including person-centered care plans, education, and training for people living with dementia, aging adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and their caregivers. Statistics show there are an estimated 15.7 million adult family caregivers caring for someone who has Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias in the U.S., and many caregivers cannot recognize when they are experiencing the early signs of burnout. This project is unique, as Alabama area agencies on aging are working together to ensure consistency in dementia services provided throughout the state and are keeping their local and state leaders informed of their work as part of their sustainability planning.

NADRC webinars are free and open to the public. Registration is required. The webinars are recorded and made available on the NADRC website. Captioning is available during the webinar and in the recording. Contact NADRC-Webinars@rti.org with any questions.
