Dementia-Specific Respite Care in Action: Innovative Programs and Sustainable Pathways

The Center for Dementia Respite Innovation (CDRI) will hold a webinar providing an overview of their grant-funded, dementia-specific respite pilot programs.

CDRI is funded by the Administration for Community Living and administered by the Alzheimer’s Association. CDRI awards grants to support home and community-based service programs that advance innovation, accessibility, and sustainability in respite services. Grant-funded programs are designed to expand access to high-quality, person-centered respite care for people living with dementia and their caregivers. 

This webinar will provide a brief overview of CDRI’s funding approach, program structure, and impact to date, followed by presentations from two funded providers highlighting their respite models: the Care Collective in Boise, Idaho, and the Interprofessional Therapeutic Activity Program at the University of Central Arkansas. 

Date: Wednesday, June 10, at 1:00 p.m.
