What community programs in Calgary support families affected by dementia?

Calgary is home to several initiatives designed to create dementia-inclusive communities:

  • Dementia Network Calgary brings together individuals and organizations to advocate for change and provide community-wide support.
  • Alzheimer Calgary offers structured support groups and hosts events throughout the year to help families connect and share experiences.
  • The City of Calgary provides dementia-friendly wellness programs to promote inclusion and engagement.

These programs can complement in-home care by fostering connection and reducing isolation for both caregivers and loved ones.
