TAKING CARE, a 38-minute documentary that follows Seth Rogen and Lauren Miller Rogen as they face the challenges of Lauren’s mother’s early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Directed by award-winning filmmaker James Keach (Walk the Line; Glen Campbell: I'll Be Me; Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice), the film captures the Rogens' unique blend of humor and honesty as they navigate the challenges of caregiving.
Following a screening of the film, there will be a panel and discussion with the audience. Panel members will include clinicians, researchers, caregivers, and people living with dementia. We hope to explore opportunities for improving the lives of those affected by dementia, and educating future generations on prevention as well as caregiving needs.
This event is open to people of all ages and abilities. We hope to spark a meaningful conversation in our community to collectively prepare for the increasing rates of dementia. Come prepared to share and learn from stories and experts.
