Memory Bridge


Memory Bridge creates programs that connect people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias to family, friends, and other people in their local community. They also create programs that reveal to the general public the depths of memory that dementia does not erase.

Their goal is to create a global community of people who, like us, are learning to listen to people with dementia for what they have to teach us about our own humanity.

A recent project of Memory Bridge is the film "There is a Bridge", a documentary that reveals the unrecognized capacity of people with Alzheimer's and related dementias to maintain emotionally meaningful relationships.

Also available on the site are clips of interviews with leading experts on dementia, as well as artists living with dementia.
