Reimagining Dementia: A Creative Coalition for Justice is an international group of people living with dementia, care partners, family and community members, dementia activists and allies, health professionals, advocates, artists, academics, policymakers, and others. We are committed to creativity, belonging, joy and growth for everyone. We currently have over 840 members in 35 countries. Unique to the Coalition is a belief in creativity (the arts, theater, music, movement, improvisation, performance) as an innovative way to challenge the stigma and shaming of dementia and the inequities experienced by people living with it, and to effect individual and social transformation. By leveraging the collective resources and successes of our members and collaborators, the Coalition is giving everyone impacted by dementia the tools, understandings and support they need to thrive.
