Alzheimer's Association relocating
On July 1, the office of the Alzheimer's Association in Camarillo will be moving.
The new home for the California Central Coast Chapter's Ventura County office will be 80 Wood Road, Ste. 302, in Camarillo. The agency's new telephone number will be (805) 485-9412.
The new office is about a mile south of the 101 Freeway from the current office, 1339 Del Norte Road, in Camarillo. The old phone number will remain in effect until the end of this month.
The move is expected to save the nonprofit about $2,000 a month on rent for nearly the same amount of office space, said Norma Featherstone, area director.
The association is on good financial footing but is seeking to cut expenses, she said.
The Alzheimer's Association provides a variety of free services for caregivers and Alzheimer's patients, including care consultation, a 24-hour hotline and educational programs and support groups. The association is supported by grants, donations and annual Memory Walk events in the fall.
The agency plans no staff layoffs and will continue to offer the same range and level of services to caregivers and Alzheimer's patients, Featherstone said.
The move should not interrupt services because most of the transfer will occur after hours on June 30. An open house for the new office is planned for 4 to 7 p.m. Thurs., July 16.
For more information, call (805) 4855597, or (805) 4859412 after June 30.
