Description:
With one in three seniors dying with
Alzheimer’s or other dementia related illness, providing resources for them and
their caregivers is crucial, especially for rural areas that might lack other
support systems. Learn about how the Effingham Public Library developed
partnerships and low-cost resources to support this critical need. You
can learn more about the Effingham “Forget Me Note Resource Center” by watching
