Watch the Manatee County DCCI Launch!

The Department of Elder Affairs announced the Dementia Care and Cure Initiative (DCCI) to engage communities across the state to be more dementia caring, promote better care for Floridians affected by dementia, and support research efforts to find a cure.

Being a dementia-caring community means that there are services and supports in place to make that community hospitable to someone living with dementia, their care partners, and loved ones. We want those living with dementia to still play a vital role within their communities, and that each interaction they have while out will be a positive one, created out of respect and understanding.
