The Healthy Brain Expo will be hosted at Laguna Woods Village on Saturday, October 13 th from 10 am to 2 pm. The main goal is to promote brain health and present the local resources that are available (12 exhibitors will be participating). We have 3 speakers lined up for that day to talk about brain health: a neurologist, a nutritionist and a pharmacist. Guests will have the possibility to get their memory checked, as well as take a "Virtual Dementia Tour". Admission is free, prizes will be raffled off, and a lunch is provided.
This will be the 3 rd Healthy Brain Expo organized by AFC. The first 2 were hosted at the center in Huntington Beach.
