About the training

Join the webinar on Monday, September 12 | 1:00 - 2:00 pm ET

Join NADRC for its webinar, "Building Partnerships to Scale Effective Dementia Care Supports: Indiana University and Indiana’s Area Agencies on Aging."

Indiana University (IU) was awarded grant funding in 2020 under ACL's Alzheimer’s Dementia Programs Initiative to implement the Caregiver Stress Prevention Bundle (CSPB) for people living with dementia and their informal caregivers. The CSPB is delivered through five area agencies on aging (AAA) by trained care coaches who are community health workers employed by the AAAs and supported by IU dementia care experts. Presenters will share how the university partnered with AAAs to implement the dementia care program and results-to-date. Reasons why AAAs partnered with IU to launch a dementia care program and plans for sustainability will also be discussed.

National Alzheimer’s and Dementia Resource Center (NADRC) webinars are free and open to the public. Complimentary CEUs are available. Closed captioning is available for all NADRC webinars. All NADRC webinars are recorded and available for viewing on the website.
