engaging State and/or Local Communities for Dementia Friendliness

 

Engaging State and/or Local Communities for Dementia Friendliness

Many creative and innovative efforts are underway at local and state community levels aimed at increasing dementia capability and friendliness. Some efforts bring together people with dementia in social settings such as Memory cafes. Other efforts follow a template with technical assistance such as Dementia Friendly America. Some state dementia plan efforts are coalescing communities to action. How are you successfully engaging your community for dementia friendliness?
