In this powerful panel discussion, people living with dementia will share personal reflections, lived truths, and critical insights about dementia care and what it means to be supported with dignity, freedom, and respect. Rather than speaking about people living with dementia, this panel session will center their voices—challenging assumptions, naming harms, and illuminating what true support could and should look like.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the human impact of current care models and be inspired to reimagine support through the lens of inclusion, rights, and personhood.
