Hen House Café donates to Dementia Education

Dementia Education is a Citrus County nonprofit organization whose mission is to further public understanding of memory diseases in ways that will result in better and more compassionate care for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.  In 2014, the Hen House Cafe became the first business in Citrus County to be trained and certified Dementia Friendly.  Since that time, Speckner has sponsored an annual fund-raising event to support Alzheimer’s-related projects and organizations.
