AADL Welcomes: Envisioning a Dementia Friendly Community with Dementia Friendly Saline+

There are over 18,000 Washtenaw County residents dealing with Alzheimer’s or other dementia diseases, or serving as their family caregiver. This one hour session will present information on the difficulties that persons with dementia encounter and practical examples of how residents and businesses can make it less difficult and more dignified for persons with dementia to be a part of, instead of apart from, the community. Learn about how cities—like neighboring Saline—have been nationally recognized as Dementia Friendly Communities (Saline is one of two in Michigan).
