By 2028, more than 100,000 women will be diagnosed with dementia every year in Canada. That’s one woman every five minutes.
This Women’s History Month, we recognize the impact of dementia on women—both as those living with the disease and as caregivers. Together, we can advocate for more research, better care, and stronger support.
Let’s make history by building a future with better brain health for all. 💙
