DAA is where people come together to connect, form friendships, exchange ideas, learn, and create a better community in which to live with dementia.
Enhancing Lives
Most doctors believe there are no treatments for dementia. There actually are many things you can do.
Connecting People
Relationships are vital to human well-being. Connecting with others can boost your health.
Increasing Understanding
Imagine living with a condition that is highly stigmatized and mostly misunderstood even by doctors.
Dementia Does Not Define A Person
Dementia is a wideiy misunderstood condition, even by physicians. Society’s stigmatized perception about living with dementia has profound negative effects on them. Rather than being understood as people with many aspects to their lives who have some changing abilities needing accommodations, they become reduced to their diagnosis. DAA provides help, hope and education about living with dementia.
