About the Memory Café

About the Memory Café

This memory café was developed to connect people living with cognitive impairment or dementia and their care partners with others in the community who are going through a similar journey. The mission of the café is to provide a safe, open space to connect with others, socialize, learn a new activity, and have some fun together!

These free events are open to older adults with memory loss and their care partners. Each month features a new performance or educational presentation in a one-hour event. The first half hour is designated to the presenter, performer, or activity and the second half hour is set aside for attendees to socialize with one another.

Goals

  • Provide a regular and supported social opportunity for people living with dementia and their care partners, as well as other family members, friends, and community members who wish to offer support or learn more about dementia.
  • Provide a welcoming, safe, informal environment where individuals living with dementia feel they belong, are understood, and are valued members of the community.
