About this listen

 Frederick Knuckles hosts Let’s Talk About It on WOVU and welcomes Nicaela Brooks, DEI Program Manager for the Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Cleveland, to discuss Alzheimer’s and caregiving. They highlight the need for early detection, addressing stigma, and supporting caregivers — especially in African American and Hispanic communities. Listeners can visit alz.org or call the 24/7 helpline at 1-800-272-3900. Nicaela provides free education and dementia care coaching across 16 Northeast Ohio counties and can be reached at 234-804-8232. November is Caregiver Appreciation Month, and the Association is hosting free luncheons:
  • Nov. 8 – Akron (contact Nicaela at 234-804-8232)
  • Nov. 15 – Lorain (call 216-342-5607)
They encourage caregivers to prioritize self-care to prevent burnout.
