How to Build Strength and Resilience … while living with chronic, progressive illness

Last updated on February 5, 2026.

This educational, supportive, and action-oriented program is for people with Parkinson’s Disease or dementia and their caring partners. Whether you have the diagnosis or are the partner/helper, you each have unique losses—physically, mentally, and emotionally. With the right tools and support, you can build the strength to bounce back from setbacks and create more balance and well-being in your daily life.

Richard Houston, PhD, Clinical Psychologist and Educator, along with Eileen Joyce, Certified Coach/Grief Recovery Specialist, have developed this program. It is sponsored POP Santa Fe and the Memory Care Alliance, and therefore free of charge to participants.
