Kaye will share her story and the struggles of living with dementia as a transgender person.  Sam will tell us how the Alzheimer’s Association is working to help this population, and together we will discuss the proper terminology and how we can remove the stigmas and build tolerance for all people living with the disease.  Come and join the conversation!
