With dementia diagnoses on the rise and expected to triple in Canada over the next 25 years, comes a rapid increase in the need for care.  Primary care providers are often family and loved ones of people living with dementia,  

​

The BC Dementia Care Society is a catalyst for maximizing quality care and support for both people with memory loss, and their care partners. Our non-profit organization was founded with the purpose of providing social, recreational, artistic, and educational programs, services, resources, and support to people living with dementia and their carers, while raising awareness, and promoting dementia-friendly and socially inclusive communities. 

​

​

The BC Dementia Care Society operates under the mandates of:

• Canada's National Dementia Strategy to prevent dementia and improve the quality of life of people living with dementia, and their caregivers.

• World Health Organization (WHO) Dementia-Inclusive Society: prioritizing dementia awareness, risk reduction, dementia as a public health priority, support and care for people with dementia and their carers, as well as dementia research and innovation.
