November is National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month & National Family Caregiver’s Month

Each November, we celebrate Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness and Family Caregiver’s Month to create community acknowledgment of Alzheimer’s disease, a form of dementia that impacts memory, thinking, and behavior and affects over 5 million Americans. In order to alert the community of the special needs of those who suffer from Alzheimer’s disease and their caregivers, we want to tell you about a very important organization that provides services and support in this area.

CaringKind is an organization dedicated to creating, delivering and promoting inclusive and compassionate care and support services for individuals and families affected by Alzheimer’s (and related dementias). They are continuing to work on and eradicate the disease through the advancement of research in search of a cure. CaringKind provides a host of free information, tips, tools, support groups and community resources for caregivers. In addition, CaringKind has a free 24-hour Helpline where you can speak to a trained professional. 

For more information, please visit caringkindnyc.org or ask us for direction in caring for your loved one as you face the impact of Alzheimer’s disease.

 

Our firm now offers Care Advocacy to service all of our clients' needs with our new social work staff. Please call our office anytime for assistance in your Estate Planning, Long Term Care Planning, Medicaid or Special Needs Planning: (718) 238-6960 or info@gylawny.com. We will be happy to schedule an appointment with one of our attorneys.

On Monday night, October 26th, CaringKind held their annual Forget-Me-Not Gala.  This year, the Gala was held virtually for the first time.  CaringKind is a leading expert on Alzheimer’s and dementia caregiving. They work directly with community partners to develop information, tools and trainings to help support individuals and families affected by dementia.

Grimaldi & Yeung LLP will participate in this year’s Virtual CaringKind Alzheimer’s Walk!

Grimaldi & Yeung LLP will participate in this year’s Virtual CaringKind Alzheimer’s Walk on Sunday, October 11, 2020 to support Care, Research and Advocacy!

On December 1, 2015, the New York City Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association separated from the National Alzheimer's Association, to return to their roots as a stand-alone, independent charity. The nation's leading experts in Alzheimer's care, education and support can still be found at 360 Lexington Avenue under the new name, CaringKind, The Heart of Alzheimer's Caregiving.

The 2020 CaringKind Alzheimer's Walk is virtual this year! Because of COVID-19, we can't all meet in one place, but we can still walk at the same time in support of Alzheimer's and dementia caregiving! You can join online for the opening ceremony, and then walk - in real life - in your own neighborhoods. That way, your community will know that you walk in support of Alzheimer's and dementia caregiving, and can keep all Walkers safe and healthy.

CaringKind will have a whole afternoon of livestreams. In order to participate in the online programs, you’ll need a computer, tablet, or smart phone with an Internet connection – to view events, you can visit: https://caringkindnyc.org/events/.

Note from Jed Levine, President & CEO of Caringkind:

Dear Pauline and Judie, 

Thank you so much for helping to make this morning’s walk a success . Our Walkers had a moving, meaningful experience that didn’t shy away from the reason we do what we do and the day was the perfect last Sunday of summer. I got to meet and thank a lot of our hardworking volunteers, sponsors and team captains and walkers, who were genuinely moved to be there and happy to support us. And I was so pleased to once again greet a large team from your firm. You both did an outstanding job, making the Brooklyn  Walk into an important community event. 

Thank you both for all you do for us. Caring Kind and I, personally, am  so proud to call you friends and partners. 

Jed
