Let's try this again! We are still looking for people to participate in focus groups to share their input on the challenges that people who are living with dementia face when they go out in public and what we can do to make a more inclusive community. If you don't want to join a focus group, you can also participate in a one-on-one virtual meeting, a one-on-one phone call, or you can complete a paper questionnaire and return by mail (or email).

If you are interested in participating, email us at [email protected] or call us at 724-349-4500.
