*Special session for members of the Western Branch YMCA*

Members of the Western Family YMCA are invited to join the University of Delaware’s Brain-WISE program, starting on February 3rd.

Approximately 45 % of cases of dementia could be prevented or delayed by making lifestyle changes and reducing certain risks. Unfortunately, there is a lot of misleading information in the news and on TV, and it isn’t easy to figure out how to improve brain health in an evidence-based way. Additionally, making changes to health habits can be challenging.

Brain-WISE is a 6 week module, group-based workshop to provide education and support for improving brain health in aging. The program is for people who do not have significant daily challenges with their thinking or memory. The University of Delaware is pleased to be able to offer the program at no cost to participants because it is supported by a research grant.

If you have questions about the program, please email Kimberly Van Buren here.
