What the grant funds

Projects will integrate CHWs into community-based aging services to improve dementia screening and referral, deliver dementia-specific evidence-based or evidence-informed interventions, reduce barriers to care, and improve access to supportive services and quality of life for people living with dementia and their caregivers.
