LUNCH N LEARN: The Impact of Alzheimer's & Dementia in Our Community
"The Corporate and Community Impact of Alzheimer's"
Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias are increasingly affecting businesses, employees, customers, and communities. Many organizations are seeing the impact firsthand through caregiving responsibilities, changing workforce needs, rising health concerns, and the growing importance of supportive workplace cultures. Understanding these challenges creates opportunities for empathy, education, and meaningful action.
