Programs

All our programs are provided free of charge regardless of ability to pay. Our goal is to help you build the best support system possible that will serve you over the potentially long duration of dementia disease progression.

  • SHINE Counseling

    Navigating insurance issues, especially signing up for new programs like MassHealth, can be overwhelming on a good day; caring for someone with ADRD can make the insurance process feel even more overwhelming. The AFSC is lucky to have Bob Mauterstock, a retired financial planner and former caregiver, as our own SHINE (Serving the Health Insurance Needs of Everyone) volunteer to help you through the rough spots.

  • Social Engagement Program

    Even though someone may be living with cognitive loss, for many people the desire to contribute to his or her community remains intact.

  • Walking Program

    Opening in early spring of 2022, the AFSC is excited to open Cape Cod’s first Alzheimer’s community center at the Cape Cod Mall. This state-of-the-art space will be home to a host of new programs, including AFS Community Walking, activities groups, educational programs, and more!
