Alzheimer Society Is Trying To Reduce Stigma

The Alzheimer Society in Bridgewater is trying to make friends.

The Dementia Friends campaign is asking people to change the way they interact with those diagnosed with the disease.

Coordinator, Joan Parks-Hubley says the goal is to help people with dementia feel less isolated.

“It’s a way of engaging people to really make our community, here on the South Shore, more dementia friendly,” she says.

She says this is another step in providing necessary services for the growing senior population on the South Shore.

To become a friend you can go online and take the pledge.
