Welcome to Dementia Guardian

A movement to protect, honor, and uplift those living with dementia and the caregivers who love them.

Every movement starts with a moment. For Dementia Guardian, that moment began with a simple, pressing question:

How can we help the world see and understand dementia—without saying a word?

The Heart Behind the Symbol

For millions of families, dementia is more than a diagnosis—it’s a daily journey filled with challenges, love, exhaustion, and grace. In public spaces, in emergencies, and even in everyday conversations, people living with dementia are often misunderstood. Caregivers—those unsung heroes—carry an invisible weight while navigating the needs of the person they love.

Dementia Guardian was created as a visible response to that invisible struggle. At the heart of our work is a recognizable symbol that can be worn, displayed, or carried, signaling to others:

• This person may be living with dementia.

• This caregiver is leading with love.

• Patience, compassion, and understanding are needed here.

  
  

Our Mission in Brief

We want this symbol to become as widely recognized as the pink ribbon for breast cancer awareness or the red cross for medical aid. It’s not just about recognition—it’s about dignity, safety, and community awareness.

Who We Serve

• People living with dementia, in all its forms

• Family caregivers, who give their time, hearts, and often health to the role

• First responders, medical staff, and community members, who can benefit from a clear cue when interacting with those affected

  
  

Where We’re Going

Dementia Guardian is more than a brand—it’s a movement, a ministry, and a community. We envision a world where the symbol is instantly understood, where a glance is enough for someone to respond with kindness instead of confusion.

This site will be your window into that vision. Here, you’ll find:

• The story behind the symbol

• Resources for caregivers

• Opportunities to partner or spread awareness

• Updates on how the movement is growing

  
  

We invite you to explore, learn, and join us. Whether you are a caregiver, a loved one, a professional, or someone who simply believes in compassion—there’s a place for you here.

Welcome to Dementia Guardian. Together, we can make the invisible visible.
