Along with Dementia Friendly America, Dementia Friends USA is administered by n4a.

Developed by the Alzheimer’s Society in the United Kingdom, the vision of Dementia Friends is that by helping everyone in a community understand what dementia is and how it affects people, each of us can make a difference for people touched by dementia. There are millions of Dementia Friends globally and more than 72,000 in the United States.
