22nd Annual Education Conference Was A Huge Success

Conference LogoOn April 27th our chapter hosted the 22nd Annual Alzheimer's Regional Conference entitled "Beyond the Faces of Alzheimer's" at the Washington State Trade and Convention Center. The agenda featured a keynote address by Dr. David Snowdon, two pre-conference intensives, and workshops specifically designed for each of the five learning tracks.

More than seven hundred participants, ranging from family caregivers to health care professionals, attended this sold-out event. Attendees gave the conference rave reviews. "Good ideas that I can use in my work!" "Excellent speakers!" "Fantastic program!" "I cannot wait until next year!"

Mark your calendars now for the 2008 Annual Education Conference being held on April 4th at the Washington State Trade and Convention Center. Keep checking our website for more information. You'll find details on conference registration, sponsorship opportunities, vendor tables, and how to nominate your favorite caregiver for the "Excellence in Caregiving" awards.
