NCCA Announces Creative Caregiving Guide
Submitted by Steve on February 24, 2016
The National Center for Creative Aging (NCCA) convened national leaders and advocates, master teaching artists and researchers for the regional launch of the NCCA Creative Caregiving Guide on February 23 in Los Angeles, California. The guide is a web-based and community-shared resource specially designed for both family and professional caregivers of adults who live with Alzheimer's disease and related cognitive disorders. The exercises are modeled on the work of master teaching artists and are informed by a growing body of research that supports the healing power of creative expression.
