Dementia Minds Groups: What do participants say about joining a Dementia Minds group?

Conversations with my Dementia Minds friends (I call them family) has really helped me embrace the term “LIVING WELL” and given me a brand-new outlook on life. Now, I can share that gift with others through advocacy and education.  It is such a wonderful feeling when people thank me and tell me I am changing their life. -Brian

When we are diagnosed, we are given very little information about dementia. It’s new and it’s interesting… which means we are interesting. But here is the best part, we ARE NOT alone.  Dementia Minds allows us to meet and talk with others who are just like us. Dementia Minds also gives us a voice to advocate for ourselves and educate others. -Terry

To educate oneself and others, embrace the condition thus minimizing societal stigma and fears. Thank you, National Council of Dementia Minds, for helping us live our new life to the fullest! -Paul and Debra
