That's a wrap on our 5th annual Dementia Awareness Month! Thank you to everyone who joined with us at our events, engaged with our educational content, and/or supported financially. We are so proud of our results as it is a true testament to what can be achieved when a community comes together with a shared purpose! Check out the recap below on all that took place to help spread dementia education, research awareness, and hope in our community...

We gathered at Dementia Lightning Learning to hear from local experts on estate planning, senior placement services, financial planning, and other resources available for families facing a dementia diagnosis. In addition to providing informative presentations, the speakers provided resources and held an extensive Q&A session with attendees.
Thank you to our Lightning Learning speakers:
Susan Balog, Personal Placement

In total, CTF raised over $6,000 from the collective efforts of our Dementia Awareness Month, which will be put directly toward the continued research advancements of the CTF Consortium.
