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.

De Demen entia F Frien endly I Illinois: s: Go Goal

To support the recognition of at least one community in each State Planning Service Area as being part of Dementia Friendly America.
