Thank you for your interest in our Mindfulness-based Dementia Care program.
Mindfulness-based Dementia Care is a nine-week program designed for family caregivers of adults living with dementia. We currently do not offer programs to professional caregivers. The program shares how the practice of mindfulness can provide support during the challenges and stresses of dementia care.
Mindfulness-based Dementia Care is currently offered virtually. Classes meet weekly and attendance each week is required for course participation. Some outside practice and reviewing course material between classes is also expected.
Registration is now open for our winter and spring 2023 sessions. Please register on the Presence Care Project website here.
If you experience any troubles registering, please email Laura Rice-Oeschger, LMSW at lerice@med.umich.edu.
