Would You Like to Learn How to Implement High-Connection  Activities in Your Respite Community?

Sign up for this demonstration of tried-and-tested connection activities that you can implement in programs that serve friends living with dementia. 

The session is led by Daphne Johnston, who served as director of a Respite Ministry in Montgomery, Alabama, for more than 10 years and, earlier in her career, led activities in long-term care.

As you apply the techniques Daphne demonstrates, you’ll see how trained volunteers can turn seemingly simple games into opportunities for friends living with dementia to be part of group energy and joy.

Connection activities like these create openings for purposeful small group conversations; games for hand-eye coordination; and the thrill of team competition. In the fun and excitement, you'll also enjoy ways to connect with friends living with dementia for whom traditional conversations are difficult.
