Become a DIA Outreach Partner

DIA aims to have outreach partners all over India

Dementia India Alliance (DIA) is committed to ensuring that quality dementia care services are available across India. Given the country’s cultural diversity, it is essential to have regionally adaptable services that meet the unique needs of local communities. That’s why DIA collaborates with organizations across India to create culturally sensitive, accessible, and high-quality dementia care solutions.

As Outreach Partners, organizations play a key role in expanding awareness, enabling early diagnosis, capacity building and improving dementia care services in their region. By working together, we can bridge critical gaps and bring meaningful change to people and families affected by dementia.
