DEMENTIA CONFERENCES PROPEL EDUCATION TO THE FOREFRONT The Delaware Valley Chapter traditionally holds three annual dementia conferences—one in each of the three states in our service territory. The November Delaware Conference boasted a record-setting 639 attendees consisting of both professional and family caregivers. The featured keynote speaker was Tam Cummings, Ph.D., author, gerontologist and internationally recognized educator. The spring Southeastern Pennsylvania conference moved to a new, larger location—the Valley Forge Casino Resort—to accommodate 439 total attendees. Memory care expert, Daniel Kuhn, LCSW, served as its keynote speaker. Finally, our June New Jersey conference showed nearly a 25 percent growth rate with a record-setting 346 attendees. Dr. Cummings was brought back by popular demand to help educate caregivers from all over the state.
