Dementia Support Group Now Meeting

Perry Lutheran Homes is offering a free, community Dementia Support Group for anyone caring for or supporting a loved one with dementia. The group provides a welcoming space to share experiences, gain helpful coping strategies, and connect with others on a similar journey. Whether you’re a family member, caregiver, or friend of someone living with dementia, you are welcome to join.

Dementia Support Group attendees will have the opportunity to learn more about memory disease, better prepare for future challenges, and receive encouragement, love and support in a non-judgmental environment. The group meets the second Friday of each month at 11:00 AM at Eden Acres Campus of Perry Lutheran Homes at 1300 28^th Street, Perry (park and enter in east lot through main entry doors). This support group is free and open to all.
