Support Groups

“People with Lewy”

Just as care partners need moments set aside to speak frankly about “life with Lewy” from their perspective, so do those who are diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia.

This twice-a-month support group is a good fit for you if:

  • you wonder if you may have LBD
  • you have had a recent diagnosis of LBD
  • you are in early stage of LBD (even if the diagnosis was several years ago, if you are still living fairly independently, this group is for you)

Meeting together with others who can absolutely relate to the experience of LBD can be liberating and strengthening.

Support Groups are held via Zoom platform.

Care Partners Only

This group welcomes spouses, adult children, and friends of those living with Lewy Body Dementia “LBD”. Topics include a wide range of issues raised by group participants and the facilitator.

  • Discussions cover the entire spectrum of LBD disease progression

These meetings also balance exploration of daily care strategies with support, rejuvenation, & inspiration for Care Partners. As airlines remind us: “It’s important to first put your mask on before helping others.”

Support Groups are held via Zoom platform.

Conversations for Recently Diagnosed and/or Young Onset

This Support Group is a good fit for you if:

  • diagnosis is recent or in process (any age)
  • diagnosis is recent and you wonder; what to do now?
  • diagnosis has come at an earlier age, typically under the age of 60; called young onset

Support Groups are held via Zoom platform.
