These conversations are always interesting. Join Alzheimer’s Speaks on a future Open Mic, as we shift dementia care from crisis to comfort around the world one episode at a time. We love raising all voices and delivering sound news, not just sound bites! So, we invite you to tell us how you are improving dementia care. We just ask all parties to hold to have a respectful conversation.
Share your dementia or caregiving story. Tell us about your service, product, or tool you have that can help others dealing with dementia. Have you written a book, penned, or produced a song or film? If so, we want to hear from you. Maybe you are working on a research project or have a trial you are promoting.
