Kearney, Neb. – The Community Coalition to Improve Alzheimer’s/Dementia Health, in conjunction with the Alzheimer’s Association, will be offering a free learning session on December 3 from 5:30-7:00 p.m. at the Peterson Senior Activity Center. To register for the event, please contact Dorann Bartels at dorannbartels@catholichealth.net or 308-865-2720.

  • Legal matters, presented by Tom Tye, attorney at the Tye Law Firm, P.C.
  • Health care for caregivers, presented by Dr. Anriban Ghosh

In addition, the event will be a giving destination as part of the Kearney Area Community Foundation’s Give Where You Live donation drive.
