We encourage all caregivers to attend a support group.
- You will receive helpful information, gain allies to walk with you down this road and find encouragement to keep you motivated. This time can help make you a better more confident caregiver.
- Caregiving is a draining and sometimes overwhelming task no matter how much you love the person for whom you provide care.
- We welcome you to a safe environment where you can relax or vent, express yourself, or just listen. You deserve this time.
- We want you to know that you are not alone and there is wonderful information and encouragement to be found.

Future Goals & Services

Certifying Camden County as a Dementia Friendly Community by working with state and city leaders to obtain official recognition for Camden County.

Respite Care

One of our short-term goals is to offer respite services for local caregivers. We will train volunteers to provide basic in-home care to allow a caregiver and family to spend some time outside the home. If you would like to be a part of our respite care team, please give Dianne Torgersen a call at 912-576-2134.

Adult Daycare

Our community is in dire need of an adult daycare for Alzheimer's/Dementia patients. A long-term goal of the Camden County Alzheimer's Project will be to fund a facility here in Camden that will meet the needs of our families in providing a safe, affordable, place for people who suffer with Alzheimer's/Dementia diagnosis.
