Locals who are caring for someone with memory loss and need information and support can go to Alzheimer’s Association family caregiver support groups, which provide a consistent and caring place for people to learn, share and gain emotional support from others who are also on a unique journey of providing care to a person with memory loss.

Meetings for unpaid caregivers, family and friends of those with memory loss will be held the first Wednesday of the month, from 1 to 2:30 p.m., at Holy Spirit Lutheran Church, 10021 NE 124th St. For information, locals can call Karen Smith at (503) 931-4780.
