3.20 Dementia-Friendly Community Designation

<div><span style='color: rgb(85, 85, 85); font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;; font-size: 16px;'>Tempe is the state’s first and only dementia friendly city and is part of Dementia Friendly America initiative. At the 2015 White House Conference on Aging, the City of Tempe was designated as one of six upcoming “dementia friendly communities” that would help lead the national collaboration. In March 2016, the city launched Dementia Friendly Tempe in partnership with the Banner Alzheimer’s Institute to make Tempe a livable place for people with dementia and their caregivers through trainings, programs and resources available to the public.</span><br /></div><div><span style='color: rgb(85, 85, 85); font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;; font-size: 16px;'><br /></span></div><div><font color='#555555' face='Open Sans, Avenir Next'><span style='font-size: 16px;'>This page provides information for the Dementia-Friendly Community Designation performance measure.</span></font><br /></div><div><br /></div>DO NOT DELETE OR MODIFY THIS ITEM.
