Slaight Family Foundation Dementia Initiative Newsletter – Fourth Edition.
The Slaight Family Foundation Dementia Initiative brings together a powerful group of Canadian partners advancing dementia prevention, brain health and inclusive supports. In this edition, we highlight how coordinated action is driving real impact across the dementia care continuum.
Organizations featured in this issue include:
- Baycrest, expanding brain health programming, public engagement and evidence-informed tools
- Belmont House, cultivating connection through resident-centred care
- Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), implementing technology-enabled integrated care pathways in long-term care
- Egale Canada, building inclusive dementia support for 2SLGBTQI communities
- Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, growing integrated brain health services in seniors housing
- The National Institute on Ageing (NIA), is hosting an upcoming webinar on how primary care providers can lead dementia diagnosis and management, plus the national report on Addressing Dementia in Canada is now available in French.
Together, these partners are turning research into practical impact — improving disability risk reduction, strengthening care, and enhancing quality of life for people living with dementia and their care partners.
