StrongerMemory and Goodwin Living were honored to attend the official launch of Resilient Health Communities (RHC) this June in Silver Spring, Maryland.
RHC is a nonprofit committed to addressing dementia and social isolation—especially in underserved and underrepresented communities. Their mission is rooted in the belief that brain health is foundational to living a full and empowered life.
At StrongerMemory, we share this belief. That’s why this partnership is so meaningful—built on shared values of brain health equity, dignity in aging, and expanding access to tools that support memory, focus, and independence.
We’re proud that the StrongerMemory program is one of the resources RHC is using to bring accessible, daily brain health practices to the communities that need them most.
Congratulations to the entire RHC team on this important milestone. We look forward to what we can accomplish together.
