Athens, Ga. (June 7, 2023) – Caring for someone living with dementia can be challenging, and at times overwhelming. The team of professional social workers with Sixty Plus Services at Piedmont Healthcare have been assisting families affected by dementia since 1987. On Friday, July 21, social workers from Sixty Plus Services will lead a comprehensive workshop for non-professional caregivers. Participants will learn about the types and stages of dementia, helpful resources, and how to take care of yourself.

The workshop will take place at Athens Community Council on Aging, located at 135 Hoyt Street in Athens, from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. The cost for the workshop is $20 and includes a light lunch. To register, call Kellye Morgan at 706-549-4850 or email kmorgan@accaging.org.
