There is a better way to support people living with dementia—one that goes beyond medications.

This August, Dementia Beyond Drugs Online (DBDO) from The Eden Alternative® will help participants:

✔ Understand the meaning behind expressions of distress

✔ Build skills for supportive, responsive partnership

✔ Reduce reliance on antipsychotic medications

Grounded in real-life application, this course empowers teams to create environments where people living with dementia can thrive.

Be part of the movement to reimagine dementia support.

We believe meaningful culture change begins with a shared commitment to seeing and supporting each person as an individual.

That's why we're excited to share the upcoming Certified Eden Associate Training (CEATO) from The Eden Alternative® this August.

This engaging learning experience will help participants build practical skills that promote autonomy, connection, and well-being.

Whether you're a direct care professional, leader, or part of a multidisciplinary team, CEATO provides a common foundation for creating communities where older adults and those who support them can truly thrive.

Join us as we continue advancing person-directed care across Texas.

What happens when we listen to the people who know dementia best?

Join people living with dementia, family members, care partners, educators, researchers, healthcare professionals, and advocates for an inspiring online symposium that challenges outdated assumptions and explores new possibilities for living well with dementia.

Together we'll examine how the stories we tell influence attitudes, relationships, care, and community. Through lived experience, practical strategies, and meaningful dialogue, participants will discover approaches that foster dignity, partnership, belonging, and hope.

Whether dementia is part of your life personally or professionally—or you're simply interested in creating more inclusive communities—you are welcome.

Every person has a story. Their care plan should reflect it.

Care Plan Stories is an online learning collaborative for anyone involved in supporting older adults—including direct care staff, clinicians, leaders, family members, and advocates.

Participants learn practical ways to create care plans that honor each person's strengths, preferences, relationships, routines, and goals while supporting meaningful, person-directed care.
