It’s one of our favorite times of year again – Aphasia Awareness Month! All month long we are offering you the chance to spread awareness of aphasia and PPA (Primary Progressive Aphasia) and, in the process, support the future of MnCAN!
To kick off the month, Marilyn Maltby will be sharing her PPA journey in a Facebook Live interview on June 7th at 12:30pm on the MnCAN Facebook page. MnCAN participants from the PPA Support Group have joined in the fun and helped create tips for friends and family who want to help – we’ll be highlighting them throughout the interview and on our PPA campaign page!!
Wait – there’s more! We have three other great Facebook live interviews planned for this month!
