Volunteer work
As part of the Spokane Regional DFC, passionate volunteers work within their schedules to create an equitable and inclusive community for people living with dementia and their care partners.
Volunteering can look like:
- Attending the monthly action team meeting either in person or on Zoom
- Contributing ideas over email
- Leading Dementia Friends Information Sessions as a Dementia Friends Champion
- Advocating for people living with dementia and their care partners
- Participating in one or more of our subcommittees:
- Businesses
- Community Spaces
- Faith Communities
- Medical Professionals
- Transportation
We welcome anyone who is living with dementia, a care partner for someone living with dementia, working in a dementia-related field, or who is concerned about the rapid growth of dementia in our community.
If you are interested in volunteering with any of these groups, please email us at dementia@altcew.org or fill out the form on our Contact Us page. It is because of our volunteers that we can improve the lives of people living with memory loss in our community.
