The Alzheimer's Association is looking for a Support Group Facilitator to facilitate a support group for care partners in Duluth. The group meets monthly.
Alzheimer’s Association-affiliated caregiver support groups are mutual help groups designed to provide emotional, educational, and social support for caregivers through regularly scheduled meetings. These meetings help participants develop coping methods and encourage caregivers to maintain their personal, physical, and emotional health, as well as optimally care for the person with dementia.
The Alzheimer's Association provides training for Support Group Facilitators four times a year.

Description
The Alzheimer's Association Minnesota-North Dakota has been providing services, information, and advocacy for over 30 years to people with dementia, their families and health care providers. This Chapter is one of seven founding chapters of the National Alzheimer's Association, headquartered in Chicago. It was started by family caregivers who came together around a common need of getting support and help for their loved ones with dementia. Since 1979, our donor-supported, nonprofit Alzheimer's Association has provided reliable information and care consultation; created supportive services for families; increased funding for dementia research; and influenced public policy changes.
