If you are taking care of a loved one with dementia, you can exchange tips and gain support in a group offered by Duet: Partners In Health & Aging.

The non-profit organization provides free-of-charge support groups around the Valley, including ones for family caregivers whose loved ones who have Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. One such group, Alzheimer’s and Dementia Support Group meets from noon to 1:30 p.m. the first and third Tuesdays of every month in the Mariposa room of the Duet office at 10000 N. 31st Ave., Suite D200. The next meeting will be on Dec. 7 and the one after that is scheduled for Dec. 21.

Support group members, volunteers, employees and other routine visitors to Duet who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 can attend meetings and volunteer in the office without wearing masks. Anyone who has not been fully vaccinated is asked to keep wearing masks when visiting Duet.
