Why Should I Attend?

Attendees will learn basic strategies for memory enhancement and program ideas and activities for communicating with memory-impaired adults. And all-first time briefing session participants will receive a FREE copy of the Aging in Stride guide to healthy aging and eldercare, which includes the new supplement Just In Case: Emergency Readiness for Older Adults and Caregivers. 

To participate in this briefing, please register online by September 19, 2006. This interactive briefing is hosted in both an audio and web conference format. Attendees can call in toll-free to hear the audio portion and connect online to view and download documents. 

Special Note: Despite NCOA's best efforts, occasionally people who are not registered dial into these popular sessions. As we can only accommodate 100 people, a registration does not guarantee your admittance into the briefing. We encourage you to log in early on the day of the briefing to secure your spot. In fairness to all participants, please encourage others who are interested in attending to register.
