[Libs-Or] Webinar: Make Your Library Dementia Friendly

[Arlene Weible]

DEMCO is sponsoring a webinar Make Your Library Dementia Friendly<https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/7172524858147529987?source=Demco+Email+10-17> on November 6.  The time is 11:00 am Pacific time



An estimated 5.5 million people live with a form of dementia, and studies increasingly demonstrate that its effects can be mitigated with regular, personal engagement.  As leaders in the community, libraries can take a proactive role in improving quality of life for people living with dementia by developing person-centered programming for this population.



During this webinar you will learn about:

  - Concrete initiatives that serve as successful models across diverse communities

  - Methods that outreach and medical librarians can use to serve these unique populations

  - Plans that state libraries can develop for addressing the needs of this often forgotten population
