Neighborhood and Community Members: Dementia Friendly Clark County Needs Assessment

As awareness of dementia grows, we can take action to create dementia friendly communities. While every part of the community has a unique role in meaningfully supporting people with dementia and their care partners, some actions can be taken by all members of the community. Whether you are a living with dementia, a caregiver, family member, or a community member, your voice has a profound impact in the development of dementia friendly goals and actions to mobilize these goals.  Please take this assessment.
