Addressing Cognitive Impairment and Dementia Among Older Adults Experiencing Housing Insecurity and Homelessness

Join the National Alzheimer’s and Dementia Resource Center (NADRC) for a webinar that will focus on supporting older adults experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity and cognitive impairment or Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Participants will learn how to recognize early signs of cognitive impairment in shelters and temporary housing settings and gain practical strategies for engaging seniors in ways that foster meaningful participation.

The session will also explore effective referral and partnership approaches that help connect vulnerable seniors to supportive services and pathways to stable housing. This webinar will offer actionable tools to improve outcomes for one of the most at-risk aging populations.

The presenters are from Phoenix, AZ: Kylee Volk, MPH, Associate Team Leader at Hospice of the Valley and Jackie Solares, Ozanam/De Paul Program Manager at The Society of St. Vincent de Paul.
