Promoting Dementia Awareness in Intergenerational Programming in Canada

Promoting Dementia Awareness in Intergenerational Programming in Canada

It is estimated that more than half a million Canadians over the age of 65 are living with diagnosed dementia. Lack of awareness and stigma can result in barriers to care and support for those living with dementia and reduce participation in activities that support quality of life. 

In this project, we worked with our valued partners Council on Aging of Ottawa, Andrew Fleck Children’s Services, and the Eastern Ontario Health Unit to reduce dementia stigma and increase the capacity of the family support sector to integrate dementia-inclusivity in intergenerational programming. The long-term outcome of this project is to integrate dementia awareness in intergenerational programs across Canada through the development of multimedia resources, capacity-building activities, and awareness campaigns.
