This one hour workshop from Spring Township Parks & Recreation looks at what dementia is and how to support people living with it. Participants go over five key messages about dementia and talk about the stigma that often surrounds it, along with ways to shift how people think, speak and act around the condition. A Dementia Friends, PA instructor leads the session.

It is built for adults, including family members, caregivers, neighbors and anyone who wants a clearer understanding of dementia. The workshop meets on a Tuesday morning at the Township of Spring Administration Building on Windmill Road in Sinking Spring. Two sessions are offered and the second covers the same material as the first, so you only need to attend one.

Registration is handled online through the township's activity registration page, and the schedule panel on this listing shows the current session dates and sign up cutoffs. The township asks participants to check their email in the days before the program for updated details and directions.
