The Compassionate, Dementia Inclusive Communities toolkit provides practical advice for organizations aspiring to improve support for persons living with dementia and their care partners using a compassionate community approach. The purpose of this presentation is to describe the theoretical and practical development of this toolkit, specifically the weaving together of three community development lenses: compassionate communities, dementia inclusion, and volunteer navigation. We will also share early developments of the implementation of this toolkit in 6 unique communities in BC, Alberta, Ontario, and the Yukon.
