Five Years of RISE Dementia Care
This October marks five years since RISE Dementia Care began.
What started with a few phone calls from families looking for guidance has grown through relationships, conversations, and a shared desire to help people navigate dementia with greater understanding and support.
In this special anniversary issue of RISE Together, I’m reflecting on what these five years have taught me, especially the lessons I’ve learned from people living with dementia, their care partners, families, and the professionals who support them. I also share what continues to guide the work of RISE: creating connection, building skills, reducing fear, and helping people find moments of purpose and joy along the way.
