The Glacier Hills Foundation will once again host its annual Walter J. Weber, Jr. Dementia Education Series in April and September 2026.

Through the Foundation’s generosity, Glacier Hills will make education available to all who have interest in understanding and compassionately caring for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia. National dementia caregiving expert Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Care® model will serve as the training framework. The instructor will be Beth Nolan, Chief Public Health Officer for Positive Approach to Care. Formerly an Assistant Professor and the Senior Associate Director for the Evaluation Institute at the University of Pittsburgh’s Graduate School of Public Health (PITT), Dr. Nolan received her Ph.D. in applied gerontology and holds master’s degrees in Human Development and in Applied Behavior Analysis.

Each year, The Glacier Hills Foundation presents its inclusive Walter J. Weber Jr. Dementia Education Series to provide education and ongoing training to direct caregiving staff, support staff, family members, all residents at Glacier Hills, members of the greater community, and other area aging services organizations.

The Walter J. Weber Jr. Dementia Education Series is made possible by a donation from the Walter J. Weber family to the Glacier Hills Foundation. This series is complimentary and open to the public. Online registration is now open for both the April and September events:
