Help, Understanding, Guidance and Safety

Martin County HUGS is a collaborative effort between Alzheimer’s Community Care and The Council on Aging of Martin County at The Kane Center to make Martin County a Dementia Friendly Community. Dementia friendly training creates an environment where individuals living with dementia and their caregivers are treated with respect and dignity.

Martin County HUGS provides opportunities, education and awareness to individuals who live and work in Martin County so that everyone may be able to respond to families living with dementia in a way that is kind and understanding.
