Fox Valley Memory Project

Mission: Fox Valley Memory Project collaborates with other organizations to build communities that welcome, include, and support persons with dementia, their care partners and their families.

We encourage practices of hospitality and inclusion that make our community dementia-friendly.

Our vision for living well with dementia includes Memory Cafes, Memory Loss Resource Center, Community Outreach and Education, Purple Angel Dementia Awareness Training, and Memory Assessment referral information.

We support area businesses and organizations by providing dementia-friendly trainings to better serve our community’s citizens.
