We have also hosted Carol Waarala at our library and every time she presents and answer questions, our patrons are very engaged and feel comfortable to share their own personal struggles with Alzheimer's in their lives. She is very attentive, experienced, respectful, and presents essential information that our patrons appreciate. We are hosting her again at the end of this month, the 30th from 2PM-4PM, if anyone would like to attend, to listen to her. I also highly recommend her.

Rhonda Brown via Michlib-l <michlib-l@mcls.org> 1:16 PM 6/26/2018 >>> We have had Carol Waarala speak at our library a couple of times now. She is very knowledgeable and offers many different programs regarding partnering with those living with dementia. Our patrons have been very appreciative of the information they have received, and both times have asked to have her back! I would recommend having her speak at your library.
