SUMMARY:From Awareness to Action: Community Health Workers Supporting Brain Health and People Living with Dementia.
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, September 10 at 11:00-12:00p ET \nJoin the BOLD Public Health Centers of Excellence\, the Alzheimer’s Association\, and the National Association of Community Health Workers (NACHW) to explore how CHWs can serve as trusted dementia resources in the communities they serve. \nCommunity health workers are uniquely positioned to support brain health across the full continuum of prevention from reducing risk before symptoms appear\, to recognizing early warning signs\, to supporting families already navigating a diagnosis. Activities like promoting risk reduction strategies such as cardiovascular health\, social engagement\, and sleep (primary prevention)\, connecting families to dementia specialists for early evaluation (secondary prevention)\, and linking households to ongoing care and support resources (tertiary prevention) all show the vital role CHWs play in brain health across their communities. \nThis webinar will equip CHWs with practical tools\, actionable strategies\, and foundational knowledge to confidently contribute to healthy brain efforts at every stage wherever they work.  \nDuring the session\, you will: \n\nLearn about brain health\, dementia\, and resources to share with community members.\nUnderstand how brain health and dementia care relate to CHW core competencies and goals.\nLearn how CHWs can facilitate direct referrals to dementia specialists and Alzheimer’s Association resources.\nAccess ready-to-use tools and resources to support community outreach.
