Dementia Friendly Fairfax

Dementia Friendly Fairfax Dementia Friendly Fairfax initiative started in July 2019 through a partnership with Goodwin House Bailey’s Crossroads and Insight Memory Care Center.

DFA Fairfax envisions our community as a place where people living with dementia and their care partners will be able to engage in a variety of activities, be supported in the highest quality of life, and can live independently for as long as possible. The Fairfax Area Commission on Aging and Fairfax Area Agency on Aging support Dementia Friendly Fairfax. The Commission on Aging has included Dementia Friendly Fairfax initiative in the new SHAPE Plan (formerly 50+ plan). The long-term goal is to have the action team(s) to include members from each magisterial district within Fairfax County (Dranesville, Hunter Mill, Sully, Providence, Mason, Braddock, Springfield, Lee and Mount Vernon) as well as the City of Fairfax and City of Falls Church.
