Building a dementia-friendly community starts with all of us!

Neighbors and community members play a crucial role in creating a supportive environment for those living with dementia. By fostering understanding and patience, we can make a big difference in their daily lives.

Let's create a more inclusive community together!

In honor of Dr. Fritz Jacob Heinrich Lewy’s (1885-1950), the renowned neurologist and neuropathologist for whom the aggregations of misfolded alpha-synuclein proteins in the brain, now known as Lewy bodies, were named, LBD patient-advocacy organizations from around the world are coming together today, on January 28th to raise awareness on World Lewy Body Dementia Day.

We encourage you to learn more about Lewy Body Dementia, by following our partner, the Lewy Body Dementia Association and accessing resources: https://hubs.li/Q03-XNYS0

On World Lewy Body Dementia Day, together, we can improve the lives of those living with Lewy.
