Age and Dementia Friendly Community Sessions



Washington State is taking meaningful steps to become more Age- and Dementia-Friendly — and we need your help to ensure community voices are heard.

We are hosting two dates for individuals of the DeafBlind community on April 20 and April 27 with one-on-one opportunities to talk directly with us.

Input from the community will help inform programs and policies that better support older adults and people living with dementia across the state.

We want everyone to have a good quality of life as they grow older and to help older adults, including those living with memory loss, stay active and involved in their communities.

Together, we can make Washington a place where everyone can age with dignity, purpose, and connection.



You can register for one two-hour session on (schedule below):

Monday, April 20 from 8:00 am – 5:00 pm
