At Embodied Labs, we have created a way for people to embody someone different from them in age and ability, along with the many other ways humans are diverse." To meet the challenges ahead, we need empathy, connection, and understanding more than ever!" It features this text overlayed with images that show people in VR headsets, an African-American family at a birthday party from the point of view of an older adult living with macular degeneration, an older adult Muslim woman with her grandchildren, and a training facilitator with Pride flags behind her.

As we enjoy this holiday season, let's remember that joy and challenges often go hand in hand, especially for those affected by Alzheimer's and other types of dementia.
While we can still cherish creating shared memories, it's important to acknowledge and make adjustments to accommodate the unique struggles faced by individuals living with dementia and their caregivers.
We hope these tips will help you and your loved ones to create safe, inclusive holiday experiences for all.
