January – Alzheimer Awareness Month – What Can You Do?
Life doesn’t end when Alzheimer’s begins. People living with dementia can continue to participate in life and contribute to their communities in their own way, even as the disease progresses.
Three ways to be there:
- Be a Friend
Become a Dementia Friend – someone who learns a little bit more about what it’s like to live with dementia and then turns that understanding into simple actions that can help people with dementia live well. Learn More - Be Informed
