The Dementia Alliance of North Carolina provides a range of services to support those with dementia, their families, and caregivers. Their programs focus on offering comfort, assistance, resources, and education for individuals and families, including:

Caregiver Support & Programs: The dementia alliance of NC offers various programs for caregivers, such as Dementia Navigation, support groups, and a Caregiver Assistance Fund. Additionally, they provide "Music & Memory at Home" and other caregiver resources. Their navigation support can help you understand the types of care that might be most beneficial.  The dementia alliance also provides family counseling and workshops.  Their support groups are in person by county and some have online access.  These are a great way to build local relationships with other caregivers.  

Understanding Dementia: The Alliance provides educational materials and videos to help families and caregivers understand dementia. This includes information on signs and symptoms, getting a diagnosis, clinical trial information.

Resources for Professionals: They offer patient education materials for healthcare providers, accept dementia education requests, and are involved in local research. This includes a Research Advisory Panel, Grant History, and the Lina Mae Edwards Young Investigator Research Grant.

Events and Volunteering: The Alliance organizes events and offers opportunities for volunteering and fundraising to support its mission.  

Financial and Legal Assistance: Although not directly provided by the Dementia Alliance, there are resources available in North Carolina for financial and legal assistance related to dementia care. These include programs like the Low Income Energy Assistance Program (LIEAP) and NC MedAssist for prescription medications.

Mosaic Caregiving Solutions offers a separate but complementary set of tools and resources to support family caregivers of those with dementia, including:

A 24/7 AI-powered virtual assistant: capable of answering complex questions about dementia – particularly useful outside of business hours when it’s difficult to get a care agency or medical professional on the phone.

A resource center: with original videos, blogs and a curated set of helpful articles from all over the web.

An online support community: that can connect you with others in similar situations across the US.

A gen AI engine: that can help you find the best care options in your zip code once you know what you are looking for.  The suggestions generated are based on customer reviews, not commissions or referral fees, so they are completely objective.

Mosaic Caregiving Solutions and The Dementia Alliance of North Carolina share the common goal of helping more people, families and caregivers through the dementia journey.
