The Alzheimer Society of Saskatchewan invites family and friends of people with dementia, or people affected by dementia, to attend their upcoming session, “Adjusting Your Attitude Towards Grief and Loss,” on Tuesday, April 2 from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. Nuelle Novik, Assistant Professor, Faculty of Social Work at the University of Regina will discuss the unique challenges related to grief and loss faced by caregivers and families of people with dementia.

Attendees will explore the multiple losses and anticipatory grief processes that impact those who experience and witness the progression of this disease.

The Alzheimer Society of Saskatchewan is committed to helping those affected by dementia across the province. Along with resource centres in Regina and Saskatoon, we partner with Telehealth Saskatchewan to deliver Learning Series presentations throughout Saskatchewan.
