Dementia Capable Southern Arizona, anchored at PCOA, works to increase our community’s understanding of Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementias. Working alongside local governments, we are creating a dementia-friendly communities plan to make southern Arizona a better place for people living with dementia and those who care for them. Because early detection matters, we help increase the identification of people with Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementias and make referrals to appropriate resources. We are excited to introduce Memory Cafés in Pima County, and to partner with local businesses to provide training and support to caregivers in the workplace.
