Real Talk

In times of stress and community crisis, it is common for instances of domestic abuse to rise. The experiences of people living with dementia and their supports have stigma, shame, complexity and isolation surrounding this topic. Alzheimer Calgary and Real Talk are partnering to invite you into a conversation to increase understanding and capacity for talking about domestic abuse and supporting people experiencing it. Learning how to talk about abuse isn’t fancy or complicated. Real Talk is just a real moment between two people, it isn’t about trying to fix things, it's about empowering change and bringing people together. Our driving question is : how can we better provide supports for those that are supporting people with dementia?

Come join us and engage with this question so we can all increase our understanding.
