2007- after classes and training I became an Alzheimer's/Dementia Caregiver Support Group Facilitator and continue to this day to host a monthly group meeting.

2011- The Alzheimer's Association asked me and the other SCV Support Group Facilitator to help plan the inaugural SCV Walk to End Alzheimer's. I have been on all of the subsequent walk planning committees since then, 14 walks.

2020- the Alzheimer's Association reached out to me to become an Alzheimer's Advocate. I continue to train and stay up to date with the Association's free services, research, etc. I go out in to the community on speaking engagements to inform any business, club or organization of all the ways the Alz. Assoc. can help patients and their family, friends and caregivers to navigate the journey through a diagnosis of cognitive decline.

2025- joined Serving Our Seniors as a representative of the Alzheimer's Association-CA Southland Chapter.
