Our mission is to teach attorneys, financial services professionals, corporations, government officials & others about issues facing older adults. Our programs create a better understanding of basic brain functions, identify normal aging versus delirium or dementing diseases, differentiate among various care options and their costs, and  assist professionals in creating legal and financial planning scenarios to address client needs in the context of cognitive decline. Think of this as “what you need to know in order to make a plan."
