Dem ementia ia F Frie iendly ly I Illi linois is: Ratio ionale le Building dementia friendly communities is of significant importance to the Illinois families and persons living with or at risk for dementia.

Dem ementia ia F Frie iendly ly I Illi linois is: Ratio ionale le  Approximately 230,000 people in Illinois have dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease.  By 2025 the number will increase to 260,000 people.  Each person with dementia has multiple informal caregivers so another 588,000 Illinois residents are impacted by dementia due to Alzheimer’s.

Dem ementia ia F Frie iendly ly I Illi linois is: Ratio ionale le  Every one of these individuals has to navigate through their communities.  If they do not feel supported by their community, they start becoming isolated.  Isolation leads to worsening well-being along with poor physical and mental health.
