It provides an opportunity to help people discover something within themselves. Regular exercise of any intensity — even simple stretching and balance moves — can protect the brain health of older adults with mild cognitive impairment, according to research presented at the 2022 Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC) in San Diego. Through a unique research partnership with the Georgia Institute of Technology, the Cognitive Empowerment Program aims to provide people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and their Care Partners and families an opportunity to participate in comprehensive lifestyle programs that promote joy, purpose, health, and wellness. CEP is a research study at Emory University in partnership with Georgia Tech in which a person with mild cognitive impairment and their care partner participate in several hours of educational programming each week for an entire year. CEP community live events are open to all members of the community including people diagnosed with MCI or dementia, care partners, and clinicians. Our programming is focused on research supported ways increasing empowerment, community, and decreasing symptoms of memory loss. Our programming includes cognitive training, physical training, nutrition, support groups, and a host of other topics in hopes of increasing their sense of empowerment, their sense community, and hopefully decrease their symptoms. Mission: To empower people with MCI and their care partners/families by creating a living lab that promotes joy, purpose, health and wellness through comprehensive lifestyle programs, technologies and physical environments Vision: To revolutionize the experience of people affected by MCI by creating a comprehensive approach that can be replicated nationally and internationally Learn More: https://empowerment.emory.edu #mildcognitiveimpairment #earlystagememoryloss #alzheimer #alzheimersassociation #alzheimersawareness #memoryloss #accessibleworkouts #brainhealth #brainworkouts #cognitiveimpairment #healthybrainhabits #healthyheart #hearthealthyworkouts #cognitiveempowermentprogram #cep #seniorworkout #seniorlife #seniors
