This session will provide the participant a general understanding of the difference between Alzheimer’s disease and Frontotemporal Degeneration (FTD), with an emphasis on the young-onset and atypical caregiver experience.

Communication strategies, behavior management, and caregiver support resources will be discussed. The lived experience of FTD caregivers will be shared as part of this webinar.
