Highlight: Dementia Friends PA by Gail K. Kachnycz 

     September is World Alzheimer's Month.  I recently learned about a community resource on the "Morning Light" show on Lighthouse TV. Dementia Friends Pennsylvania is part of a global movement that was started in the United Kingdom. Here is the introduction from the website:

"To become a Dementia Friend, you join others in a one-hour Dementia Friends Information Session. The session will cover five key messages about dementia and touch on what it is like to live with dementia. As a Dementia Friend you will turn your understanding into a practical action that can help someone with dementia in your community. The action can be as big or small as you choose, because every action counts!"
