Become A Friend Session (IN-PERSON) – Hosted by Thorntown Public Library

Become a Friend sessions are a brief, but very impactful way of learning about dementia, understanding and appreciating the perspective of someone living with dementia, and having the knowledge you need to better communicate and interact with those living with the disease and their family caregivers.

Attendees of Dementia Friends Indiana (DFI) sessions will also learn actions they can take to advance the DFI movement and mission of creating better understanding and awareness of dementia, reducing the associated stigma, and creating more welcoming, safe, and conducive community environments for those living with the disease. Upon completion of the DFI information session, attendees with be registered as a Dementia Friend in Indiana.
