Johnna Lowther
Director, Programs and Services, Caregivers Alberta
Johnna joined Caregivers Alberta in May of 2019, directing programs and services to Alberta’s one million family caregivers. Working in the field of human services for over 20 years, she has been a speaker at both national and global trade conferences such as Missouri Healthcare Association Annual Convention and National Center for Creative Aging Global Leadership Exchange in Washington, DC.
She believes firmly in the power of education to impact community-based services and her joint efforts in research contributed to a publication in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease entitled, “The Impact of Creative Arts in Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia Public Health Education”. Her passion for supporting persons living with dementia has her hosting Life With Dementia podcast and also led her to the 2014 publication, “Through the Eyes of Dementia”, a pocket guide to caregiving.
With 2 children under the age of 6 she defines herself as a woman of action unless you put a glass of good wine in hand and the perfect sunset to drink it to, in which case you’ll find her soaking up the leisure life for as long as the moment lasts.
