Memory Cafes in the Boston area

Boston, MA
April 11, 27; May 17
In April: Billerica on April 11 and Concord on April 27. May 17 in Natick Mass.
All are invited to a welcoming place for people living with memory changes due to Alzheimer’s, vascular disease, Parkinson’s, frontotemporal degeneration, or other related conditions. InterPlay provides a means of self-expression, connection with others, without fancy tools and rules. It addresses some of the most basic needs seniors have for non-clinical, non-task-oriented touch, for validation, for being encouraged to call forth memories, skills, talents and to try something different in an accepting environment. InterPlay groups foster community and caring among participants. It is an excellent tool for integrating seniors living at different levels of functionality. It allows task-oriented care partners and family members to see their clients/residents/loved ones as whole people again, even if different.
January 17 ay 9:30am in Lexington. Inquire for details.
