Dementia Friendly Community Ribbon Cutting

Join us at 3pm on Thursday Aug 13th at Portage City Hall to celebrate with a ribbon cutting all the businesses and organizations that have already been trained to be a dementia friendly partner.

A Dementia Friendly Community (DFC) is one that recognizes the challenges faced by those with dementia and enables them to live life to its full potential. A DFC is a place where people with dementia are understood, respected and supported. It is a place where people understand dementia, and where those with dementia feel welcomed, included and involved. A DFC is a place where everyone can contribute to life.

 
The City of Portage is partnering with the Alzheimer’s & Dementia Alliance of Wisconsin and other area businesses to support residents who have dementia and their care partners by becoming dementia friendly.
