Caring Conversations is an online forum for care partners of people living with dementia to learn from experts, share concerns and ask questions.
Join a conversation with social worker Lucy Barylak and professional coach and educator Joanne Besner about topics that are important to care partners. After a short educational presentation by the hosts, there will be an opportunity to share your own concerns and ask questions.
