About
As a Community Action Group of the Dementia Friendly Nevada initiative, the Pesa Sooname Advisory Group aims to develop and promote a community that is respectful, educated, supportive and inclusive of people living with dementia and their care partners. We use the Dementia Friendly America process to accomplish this goal, and work using an “authentic partnerships” approach, which involves direct engagement of people living with dementia and their care partners.
