Memory Café features meal and social interaction on Valentine's Day
Alzheimer's Association hosts a monthly meet-and-eat gathering for people living with dementia and for their caregivers
People living with dementia and their care partner/caregiver can attend a monthly gathering that includes a free meal. The Alzheimer's Association monthly Memory Café in Baltimore County meets the second Wednesday of the month from noon to 1 p.m.
"It's nice that February's meeting is on Valentine's Day," says Megeen White, program manager. "Social interaction can be lost or diminish when a family receives a diagnosis but it doesn't have to be a consequence. We want people to join us on the 14th to experience the benefits Memory Café offers."
