Learn How to Be a Dementia Friend
2025-04-21 14:30 - 15:30
Dementia Friends is a global movement that is changing the way people think, act and talk about dementia. By helping everyone in a community understand what dementia and how it affects families, each of us can make a different for people touched by dementia. A little understanding and support can make a big difference in their lives. And yours!

You become a Dementia Friend by attending a one-hour information session to learn about living with dementia and the simple things you can do to support someone living with the disease. It’s not a training session. You’ll learn what dementia is, what it’s like to live with the disease and some tips for communicating with people who have dementia. You don’t need to know someone with dementia to become a Dementia Friend.

Please join the Dementia Friendly Community Initiative committee (DFCI) on Monday April 21 at 12:30 at the Starin Park Community Bldg. at 504 W. Starin Rd. You will view an informative powerpoint and join a short discussion. Following the information session, you are invited to visit all or part of the monthly meeting of DFCI at 1:30 p.m. to learn of the many ways we are working toward our goal of a dementia-friendly Whitewater.

Fairhaven Lecture: Revolution, Rights, and Women’s Activism: Olympe de Gouge
2025-04-07 15:00 - 16:00
This talk will focus on the life and writings of French activist and writer Olympe de Gouge. Her scholarship during the French Revolution influenced early discussions of women’s citizenship and their political rights through her work. She greatly influenced revolutionary thought and feminism in France, though she ultimately met her demise by the guillotine. Though her writing was hated by most in France during the Revolution, she sparked conversations about equality, abolition, and citizenship across the Atlantic Ocean.
Presented by Kimberly Nath, Associate Professor and Chair, History as part of the Spring Fairhaven Lecture Series “Remarkable Women.”
Lectures are held on Mondays at 3 p.m. in Olm Fellowship Hall of Fairhaven Senior Services, 435 West Starin Road, Whitewater. All lectures are free and open to the public.
