What do you like about Dementia Friends?
Dementia Friends has given me the tools to educate the public about dementia, helping to remove stigma and create a more inclusive and supportive community. I love working with people living with dementia and their caregivers to connect them with important resources. Through Dementia Friends we have been able to connect people living with dementia and their caregivers with support groups, friends in similar situations, and important resources within the Galesburg area to live life to the fullest.
