Two Programs For Two Challenges

Fremont Library to Host Homeschool Basics Program & Dementia Behaviors Program

Live @ the Library, a series of events including author visits and informational presentations is hosting two events at the end of October. The first will be about Homeschool Basics, and the second will be about Understanding Dementia Behaviors.

Homeschool Basics: Interested in homeschooling but don't know where to start? Or maybe you've been homeschooling for awhile, but you're looking for some fresh inspiration and tips. Join seasoned homeschoolers Angela Brott and Samantha Kauffman as they present information about Michigan homeschool law, how to shop for curriculum, ideas for your homeschool space, tips and tricks, etc. This free program will begin in the library’s Community Room on Tuesday, October 25th at 7:00 p.m.

Understanding Dementia Behaviors & Enjoying Family Celebrations: Behavior is a powerful form of communication and is one of the primary ways for people with dementia to communicate their needs and feelings as the ability to use language is lost. However, some behaviors can present real challenges for caregivers to manage. Join us to learn strategies to help intervene with some of the most common behavioral challenges of Alzheimer's disease. Plus learn practical tips to reduce stress and agitation during holiday celebrations.
