Trailblazers Education and Support Group

Trailblazers Education and Support Groups are designed to provide emotional, educational and social support for individuals with early-stage Alzheimer's disease and their care partners through regularly scheduled meetings. They help participants develop methods and skills to solve problems. The groups encourage participants to maintain their personal, physical and emotional health.

Our groups are facilitated by individuals trained by the Alzheimer's Association. Trailblazers Groups provide an opportunity for persons with early stage dementia and their family members to share information and experiences in a safe supportive atmosphere. These groups will begin as an educational series of weekly meetings and then transition into a support group model.
