Advancing dementia care in Canada through trusted education and compassionate training.

Whether you’re a new caregiver or an experienced clinician, we’re here to support your learning journey with training that’s practical, adaptable, and rooted in real-world experience.

For more than 25 years, AGE Inc. has helped individuals, teams, and organizations across Canada respond to the complex realities of dementia care.

Our Gentle Persuasive Approaches (GPA®) programs are trusted, evidence-based, and designed to meet people where they are — equipping care partners with the skills, empathy, and confidence to make every interaction safer and more person-centred.

Change your opinions, keep to your principles; change your leaves, keep intact your roots.”

– Victor Hugo
