SUMMARY:Meeting Communities Where They Are: Innovative Approaches to Dementia Supports and Services
DESCRIPTION:Addressing the unique support and service needs of communities is central to effective home- and community-based dementia care. While many dementia-specific interventions are grounded in research and best practices\, they often require thoughtful adaptation to effectively reach underserved populations. Supports and services for people living with dementia\, their caregivers\, and their communities are most impactful when tailored to reflect cultural values\, language\, and lived experiences. \nThis webinar will feature two specialized\, community-based dementia programs\, each focused on an underserved population—African American and Korean American communities. Both programs have adapted their approaches to reduce barriers to service acceptance\, increase engagement\, and address unmet needs. Together\, they will demonstrate strategies for delivering strengths-based\, dementia-specific services and supports while navigating and overcoming challenges. \nDirect questions to NADRC-Webinars@rti.org \nPlease note:\nNADRC webinars are free and open to the public.\nNADRC webinars are recorded and will be posted at https://nadrc.acl.gov/.\nClosed captioning is available during the webinar and included in all recordings.

SUMMARY:Early Detection of Dementia: What to Do Now — National Resources to Plan\, Partner\, and Act
DESCRIPTION:The BOLD Public Health Center of Excellence on Early Detection of Dementia is pleased to offer an upcoming webinar to discuss new resources that they have developed for our partners\, including two new resource guides — one for community-based organizations and one for health departments who are interested in promoting early detection of dementia within and across sectors. \nIn this conversation they will discuss how to leverage the Center’s resources to assess needs and assets; identify goals and next steps; build and sustain partnerships; and measure and communicate your impact.

SUMMARY:Diagnosis and Management of Dementia in Adults with IDD
DESCRIPTION:The National Task Group on Intellectual Disabilities and Dementia Practices is hosting an educational series called “Advancing Dementia-Capable Primary Care: Supporting Adults with Intellectual Disabilities.” This series supports primary care clinicians participating in the CMS GUIDE Model and others serving adults with IDD\, including Down syndrome. The series provides a practical\, step-by-step framework spanning early identification\, diagnostic evaluation\, medical management\, and post-diagnosis care planning. \n1 Free CME contact credit will be provided upon attendance and completion of post webinar survey. \nThis session will be on “Diagnosis and Management of Dementia in Adults with IDD.” Diagnosing dementia in adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) presents unique clinical challenges that can lead to under-recognition or delayed diagnosis. This one-hour educational activity equips primary care clinicians with a structured\, IDD-informed diagnostic approach\, including how to adapt standard dementia evaluations\, identify reversible conditions that mimic dementia\, and assess likely dementia etiology. Participants will gain practical guidance on avoiding common diagnostic pitfalls and determining when specialty referral is indicated. \nPresenter: Seth Keller\, MD. Neurology Associates of South Jersey

SUMMARY:Supporting Function and Safety After Diagnosis: Dementia Care Planning for Adults with IDD
DESCRIPTION:The National Task Group on Intellectual Disabilities and Dementia Practices is hosting an educational series called “Advancing Dementia-Capable Primary Care: Supporting Adults with Intellectual Disabilities.” This series supports primary care clinicians participating in the CMS GUIDE Model and others serving adults with IDD\, including Down syndrome. The series provides a practical\, step-by-step framework spanning early identification\, diagnostic evaluation\, medical management\, and post-diagnosis care planning. \n1 Free CME contact credit will be provided upon attendance and completion of post webinar survey. \nFollowing a dementia diagnosis\, adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) need coordinated\, person-centered support. Presented from a nurse practitioner and social work perspective\, this one-hour webinar focuses on practical post-diagnosis care planning\, highlighting strategies to support function\, safety\, communication\, and collaboration with families\, direct support professionals\, and community resources. \nPresenters: Marie Clouqueur\, LICSW and Kathryn Service\, RN\, M.S.\, FNP-BC\, CDDN

SUMMARY:Neuroscience Symposium - From Inflammation to Intervention\, Neuroimmune Crossroads: Mechanisms\, Models\, and Medicine
DESCRIPTION:Neuroinflammation lies at the intersection of immune signaling\, neural circuitry\, and disease progression. Over the past decade\, extraordinary advances have deepened our understanding of microglial activation states\, peripheral immune infiltration\, cytokine signaling cascades\, and the long-term consequences of inflammatory stress on cognition and behavior. \nThe challenge before us is clear: \n\nHow do we move from descriptive findings to actionable therapeutic targets in brain tumors\, migraine\, sleep disorders\, and epilepsy?\nHow do we design interventions that modulate inflammatory pathways without disrupting essential neuroimmune communication in multiple sclerosis (MS)\, CIDP\, epilepsy\, headache disorders\, and myasthenia gravis?\nHow can we integrate biomarkers\, advanced imaging\, and AI-driven computational models to predict therapeutic response in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease?\n\nThis conference is a call to refine our tools and bridge the gap between mechanism and intervention. As we move from neuroinflammation to neurointervention\, we are not merely mapping pathways—we are building bridges: between academia\, clinical science\, industry\, government\, and advocacy communities. \nJoin us as more than 250 members of the interdisciplinary neuroscience community—spanning neurology\, psychiatry\, immunology\, psychology\, neurosurgery\, and translational research—come together to transform neuroinflammation from a diagnostic clue into a therapeutic opportunity.
