Join us for an open dialogue on building a dementia-friendly Nelson County, led by Barb Shefelton, M.Div., Director of Blue Ridge Respite. Drawing from her background as a pastor, chaplain, bioethicist, and family caregiver, Barb is a passionate advocate who has trained hospital staff and led Alzheimer’s Association support groups. Together, we will discuss how respite programs restore balance for families, offer firsthand insights on navigating a dementia diagnosis, and explore practical ways local neighbors and businesses can adapt to support those living with cognitive changes.
