This social gathering for individuals living with dementia is a place to have fun, share experiences and stay connected. This month, we'll explore Missouri native plants and pollinators. For adults experiencing any kind of dementia or cognitive decline, accompanied by a personal care partner. Registration is encouraged. Financial assistance has been provided by the Missouri Arts Council.

The "Memory Café" is a social gathering for individuals living with dementia and their care partners. It's a place to have fun, share experiences and stay socially connected. This month, Ethan Regan from the Missouri Department of Conservation will be coming to talk to us about native Missouri plants and pollinators. We will also have time to socialize. Light refreshments served.

This program is not a form of respite care or a support group. Each participant experiencing dementia must be accompanied by a personal care partner during the program. Care partners are expected to participate. Registration is encouraged but not required.  

Financial assistance for this project has been provided by the Missouri Arts Council, a state agency.
