Dementia Friends is a global public awareness program that helps everyone in a community learn about dementia, how it affects people, and the simple things that we can all do to make a difference.
Be a Dementia Friend and learn the 5 key messages about how dementia affects people by attending a free, interactive 1-hour information session at www.dementiafriendsma.org/find-a-session or a recorded session at https://dfamerica.org/become-a-dementia-friend/. [Find a Session flyer attached].
Become a Dementia Friends Champion and learn how to lead an information session for your community! Take part in a free, 3-hour volunteer training on Zoom. Champion trainings are in English and upon account approval, you will receive access to all of our adapted and translated materials in 9 languages. (There is an option to attend only the first hour and 15 minutes for those who only want to become a Dementia Friend. Those who would like to become a Champion are required to attend the whole training.)
