Children are the Key to a Dementia-friendly Future

Today there are more grandparents than ever, and they are on average a little older than in previous generations.

The Need for Senior Transportation is Greater Than Ever

Dad is fully vaccinated, and social distancing restrictions have been relaxed in his city. He’s ready to get out and about, running errands and visiting friends he missed during lockdown. But vision loss and mild memory problems make it unsafe for him to drive. He’s making the best of things by taking the bus to doctor appointments and social opportunities.
