National Active and Retired Federal Employees (NARFE), Chapter 817

The program topic will be “Brain Fitness as We Age.” Promising new developments in dementia research suggest that interventions, such as exercise, nutrition and social support, when seniors first experience mild cognitive impairment, may delay the progression of Alzheimer’s and other dementias. Learn about these new findings from Stetson University’s Dr. Matt Schrager. He will also discuss the Brain Fitness Academy, which will combine these findings into a coordinated approach to delaying dementia. Federal employees, retirees and their family members are invited to attend this meeting. Food is available for purchase. Call Virginia Comella at 386-943-8579.
