Alzheimer’s Poetry Project

The mission of the Alzheimer's Poetry Project is to facilitate the creativity of people living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementia. We work with their care partners, healthcare workers, educators, and students to perform and create poems. We do not set boundaries in our beliefs in what is possible for people with dementia to create. By saying to people living with memory loss that we value you and your creativity, we are saying we value all members of our community.

Poetry for Life (PFL)

PFL is a project bring students of all ages from preschool to medical students to perform and create poems with with people at senior, assisted living and adult day care centers.

Our special outreach seeks to join the skills and passion of the young poets of the Poetry Out Loud: National Recitation Contest, with elders and people living with dementia.
