Big Stuff Brewing:


In October 2023, the State of Michigan was awarded a $1.85 million Building Our Largest Dementia Infrastructure (a/k/a BOLD) federal grant. The Michigan Dementia Coalition is currently working with the Dementia & Healthy Brain Unit at the Michigan Department of Health & Human Services to develop the state's new Dementia Roadmap -- or as BOLD calls it, our new strategic plan. 


In the meantime, you can download the MDC's most recent update to our 2019-2022 Roadmap below:
