This National Men’s Day, we’re shining a light on the importance of understanding how dementia affects men differently.

Research shows that:
• Men have a higher risk of mild cognitive impairment (Brodaty et al., 2013).
• Depression in men is often underdiagnosed due to social expectations (Emslie & Hunt, 2009).
• Androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer has been linked to a higher risk of dementia (Jayadevappa et al., 2019).

Recognizing these differences helps improve care, early detection, and support for everyone affected by dementia.

Are you able to adopt a Senior this year?

This is an urgent request for support. We are hoping that you can help! (PLEASE SHARE!)

Each Christmas, our local chapter of IODE supports our Christmas Hamper program by 'Adopting a Senior' and shopping for gifts from their wishlist. Due to a decline in volunteer support, they truly need help this year!

Are you able to adopt a Senior this year? The cost is approximately $40/ Senior. If so, please call us at 519-534-0353.
