IDEA (Innovations in Dementia Empowerment and Action) is a program from the University of Washington. It's a study offering a free program for individuals with memory loss and their care partners. Either the person with memory loss or their care partner must be LGBTQ. The program includes nine individualized sessions with a trained coach and focuses on problem solving, improving communication, and low impact exercise. The sessions are virtual, using easy video chatting. We provide compensation for completing phone interviews and the program is available in all 50 states.
