Care Partners is excited to announce the inaugural Cook County Memory Café on Thursday, February 13th from 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. at the Hub/Senior Center in Grand Marais.
A Memory Café is a free, casual gathering where people with memory loss and the family or friends who care for them can come together in a safe, supportive, relaxed environment. Guests share conversations over a cup of coffee and games, crafts, music or other simple activities.
Memory Cafés are not a form of respite care. Instead, they offer a place where both caregiver and care recipient can enjoy one another’s company and interact with others who share similar experiences.
The Cook County Memory Café will meet on the second Thursday of each month through the support of the Lloyd K. Johnson Foundation, Live Well at Home and the Grand Marais Hub/Senior Center. Pre-registration is requested; call 218-387- 3788 or go to their website, www.carepartnersofcookcounty.org to register or for more information.
