Today’s conversation is all about stigma and living with dementia. Our experts living with dementia are Harry Urban, Karen Creekmoore, Cate Lau, Pam LaRue, Dr. Dale Anderson, Bob Savage, Dr. Lonni Schicker.

Stigma Affecting Those Living with Dementia

Dementia Chats™ Educational Panel Videos Raising Voices of Those Living with Dementia

Dementia Chats™ was created in 2012, with the intention to educate people living with dementia, and their care partners including family, friends, professionals, and advocates.

Dementia Chats™ positions our panelists to be the true experts.  They are those diagnosed with some form of dementia.  Our panelist vary from video to video depending on their personal schedules. New voices are always welcome to join us. Our Panelists become spokespersons for themselves and others living with dementia positioning them as advocates, and many say it gives them a new sense of purpose and pride which allows them to continue to live a dignified and purpose-filled life.
