You don’t have to navigate the caregiving journey alone.

Our Caregiver Pathways Support Groups provide a welcoming and supportive space for family members and friends caring for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia.

Connect with others who understand, learn more about the disease, share experiences, and receive informal support from our First LinkĀ® Coordinators.

We offer both All Caregivers and Adult Child Caregivers groups, with options to participate in person or online via Zoom.

Just look at these AMAZING handmade dollies! 🧶

The wonderful Susan has once again graciously donated her time and talent to hand-knit each one of these adorable little dolls and every single one is uniquely different!

For the third year in a row, Susan is giving back to the Alzheimer Society of Dufferin County in such a special way. In recognition of World Alzheimer’s Month, these dollies are available for purchase at BookLore in Orangeville, with all proceeds coming directly back to our Society to help support individuals living with dementia and their care partners right here in our community.

We are absolutely OBSESSED with them! 🄹 A huge thank you to Susan for the countless hours, love and care she puts into creating each one and for continuing to support our Society year after year. Your generosity means more than you know!

šŸ“ Be sure to pop into BookLore in Orangeville and grab your favourite before they’re gone...each one is truly one of a kind!

Kicking Off World Alzheimer’s Month!

Yesterday, our staff had the opportunity to set up at Headwaters Hospital to officially kick off World Alzheimer’s Month!

Throughout the day, we connected and chatted with more than 70 people....which is absolutely amazing! šŸ’œ

We love meeting members of our community, hearing your stories, answering your questions and helping people learn more about the support and resources available to them.

Sometimes, simply reaching out is the first step and you don’t have to wait until things feel overwhelming to connect with us.

Throughout September, we’ll continue recognizing World Alzheimer’s Month, raising awareness, sharing resources and reminding our community that support is available.

If you or someone you love is living with dementia, caring for someone, or simply has questions, we are always here to support you.
