Drop-in Programming
We offer drop-in programs that anyone can attend immediately.
Our Brain Wave Cafés provide a friendly place for people concerned about cognitive change & dementia and care partners to meet up on a regular basis for a coffee, conversation and fun.
Support Groups for care partners run once monthly (excluding statutory holidays) and are open to anyone.
Other Programming
We have a wide variety of support, education and social recreation programs. All programs (with the exception of Drop-In Programs above) require a referral be made through our First Link® program. First Link® assesses each referral for eligibility and connects the individual and their family to appropriate community supports in addition to a range of programs and services that we offer.
