Events

In collaboration with George G. Glenner Alzheimer’s Family Centers, Inc.© a community-based organization that supports families impacted by Alzheimer’s and other memory impairment diseases, we are hosting a Memory Café Program! Memory Cafés provide a supportive environment, often described as a “meet up”, designed to engage attendees in cognitive activities to perk up memory.

The goal of the Glenner Centers’ Memory Cafés is to keep attendees mentally and socially active, which research shows is protective of brain health. These gatherings are free and open to all older adults with or without memory concerns. Please note, no care is provided at these gatherings. Anyone needing assistance must bring their own caregiver.

When: Every 1st & 3rd Thursday | 10:30 AM – 12 PM
Where: Grossmont Healthcare District’s Health & Wellness Library (9001 Wakarusa St. La Mesa, CA 91942)
Register: Call 619.825.5010, email library@grossmonthealthcare.org, or visit us in person to reserve your spot

Sign-up process: interested participants may call, email, or sign up in person promptly after the previous class session has ended.

• Ex. I want to sign up for next week’s/month’s program. We’re only accepting sign-ups and adding names to our registration list shortly after the previous program has ended. Our class sizes are limited due to their popularity and the current capacity of our spaces. Give us a call after 12 PM and we’ll gladly sign you up. If all spots have been filled we’ll add you to our waitlist and notify you of any changes.

This is a GHD-sponsored program with priority given to people who live, work, attend school, or access health care services in East County. If there is space available, other community members may attend.
