Dementia-Friendly Communities of Northern Colorado
I’m a member of the Dementia-Friendly Communities of Northern Colorado. This volunteer initiative started in November, 2015 is now a non-profit organization designed to leverage dementia-awareness, dementia care, and community education efforts so that people walking the dementia journey in our communities don’t have to walk alone. The purple angle logo was started by a gentleman in the UK who has dementia and now it is used in countries around the world as one of the primary symbols for being dementia-friendly.

Elder Care Network of Northern Colorado
In addition to earning my SRES, I was a member of the ECN (Elder Care Network) of Northern Colorado. The Elder Care Network of Northern Colorado closed doors as of December, 2020 due to the global pandemic. Our mission was to:
“Volunteer organization of family members and both private and non-profit service providers who have joined together to ensure that family caregivers of frail elders have access to the information and resources they need to provide and manage care, health, and well being for their loved ones as well as to care for themselves.”
