Rewrite the story!
Although there is not yet a cure for dementia, you can help to rewrite the story for hundreds of Islanders living with this disease, and their caregivers. As Greg O’Brien wrote in his book, “On Pluto: Inside the Mind of Alzheimer’s:” “I strive to keep focus on living with Alzheimer’s, not dying with it.”
Martha’s Vineyard Center for Living is the Island’s only dementia and caregiver support center. We specialize in memory care and caregiver support, helping community members to age in place longer. Your generosity improves the quality of life for those living with dementia and their caregivers, as well as anyone impacted by impairments of aging.
No one has to do it alone

- Respite Innovations – home visits
- Dementia Coaching – to make home life easier
- Support Groups – professionally led for both caregivers and those experiencing early memory loss
