Inclusive Dementia Resources

Forward with Dementia has worked with people with lived experience to publish resources about dementia that are tailored to the Chinese community, available in: English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and French! The resources can be viewed and downloaded for free, at www.forwardwithdementia.ca. The Forward with Dementia initiative aims to address stigma about dementia and provide hope that people can live fulfilling lives with dementia. People living with dementia and caregivers have a right to information that is aligned with their unique culture. The Forward with Dementia team is addressing this gap by co-designing resources that are translated and adapted to be culturally-specific!  The website includes information, resources, strategies, and personal stories that were co-designed with people living with dementia, family and friend care partners, and health and social care providers. This phase of the Forward with Dementia initiative is funded by the Public Health Agency of Canada.
