Alzheimers and the Black Community
What does our history have to do with it?

In continued celebration of Black History Month Canaan Baptist Church will

host a panel discussion and presentation on Alzheimers in the Black
Community.
African-Americans are twice as likely as whites to have Alzheimers or
another dementia and less likely to have a diagnosis. Come out to the
panel discussion to learn more about it.
The discussion will cover topics such as Caregiving, Your Brain and
Alzheimers, and Are you affairs in order?
Registration is required for this event. Please call 800.272.3900 or email
Sharon.jarnette@alz.org. A continental breakfast will be served.
Please come out on Saturday, February 28, 2015 at 8:30 am.
