The Dementia Friends initiative is a worldwide effort to change the way people think, act, and talk about dementia. First developed by the Alzheimer’s Society in the United Kingdom, the program has now expanded across the globe — including right here in Virginia.
The Appalachian Memory & Aging Initiative (AMAI) is proud to partner with Dementia Friends Virginia to bring this important program to our region. By joining a Dementia Friends Information Session, you’ll gain a better understanding of what it’s like to live with dementia and how small changes in everyday life can make a big difference for individuals and families.
