Not-for-profit Organizations
Home and community environments are a vital part of dementia care. We are honoured to work alongside not-for-profit organizations toward our goal.
Meet the non-profits that we work with
Alzheimer Society of Canada: www.alzheimer.ca
Behind every person with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, there are hundreds of people dedicated to helping. The Alzheimer Society is the leading not-for-profit health organization working nationwide to improve the quality of life for Canadians affected by Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias and advance the search for the cause and cure. Active in communities right across Canada, the Society has programs and services near you.
Since 1978, we’ve been dedicated to providing help for people with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias and their caregivers. That help comes in many ways.
Alzheimer Society of BC: www.alzheimer.ca/bc/
In 1981, a group of caregivers gathered to discuss the challenges of caring for a person diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Out of their compassion and determination, the Society was ultimately founded. From those humble roots, the Society has blossomed into an organization active in communities across the province.
Our vision
Our vision is a world without Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, and that world begins with a more dementia-friendly society, where people affected by dementia are acknowledged, supported and included.
