[Libs-Or] Dementia-friendly library training?

[Kirsten Brodbeck-Kenney]

I was recently made aware of Minnesota's ACT on Alzheimer's Initiative, which includes some helpful resources for libraries on being more dementia-friendly. I'm wondering if folks are aware of any similar Oregon-based programs or trainings?

The Act on Alzheimer's website (http://actonalz.org/dementia-friendly-work) has a lot of great resources that I think we could adapt for use at our library, but it's nice not to reinvent the wheel if there are local resources we could tap.
