Building Brain-Healthy Habits
A Workshop in Partnership with the Greater Indiana Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association
Wednesday, October 14
2:00pm - 3:00pm
Join staff and volunteers from the Alzheimer's Association of Indiana to learn about ways you and your loved ones can build a healthy brain. Registration is not required but you will receive an email reminder (and it can help us plan).
This course focuses on everyday habits that support brain health — such as physical activity, nutrition and sleep — and explains why brain health matters at every age. The program highlights the latest research on brain health, including findings and recommendations from the U.S. POINTER study. Participants will learn science-backed tips for building brain-healthy habits into daily life, including how to create a personalized action plan.

College Avenue Branch
Established as the Broadway Branch in 1924, the library served the neighborhood from a frame house on E. 42nd Street until 1958 when a 6,500-square-foot facility opened on Broadway Street. This aging and overcrowded building was replaced in August 2000 with the current 16,000-square-foot structure on College Avenue that was renamed the College Avenue Branch.
