IN PERSON EVENT

The Brain Health & Care Symposium

The Brain Health & Care Symposium is a free event provided to help you learn how to stay healthy, aware, and mindful as you and your loved ones get older. Our symposiums include great guest presenters, memory screenings, an Alzheimer's simulation, give-aways, lunch and more.

A Big Thank You to Those Who Made the 2024 Brain Health & Care Symposium Possible!

At this year's symposium our expert speakers explored cognitive health, aging, medical research, end-of-life care, and support resources for caregivers and those living with dementia. In addition, this year we had tables from organizations such as the Alzheimer's Association, Emory University, and Visiting Nurse providing information and resources to participants. 


 Stay tuned for updates on our next symposium in 2025 – we look forward to welcoming you!
