How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Peer Support Networks
    methodology: peer_support_networks
    By facilitating peer-to-peer support among youth caregivers, we reduce isolation and build emotional resilience, because shared lived experience fosters trust and mutual understanding.
  • Youth-Centered Education
    methodology: youth-centered_education
    By using age-appropriate, interactive educational tools like puppet shows and school visits, we increase understanding and engagement in youth about Alzheimer's disease, because traditional formats are less effective for younger audiences.
