Collaborative Community Support for People Impacted by Dementia: A Social Return on Investment Analysis
Anne Miller, Karenn Chan, Blair Wold, Bri Krekoski and Helen Lightfoot
Abstract
The Connecting People and Community for Living Well (CPCLW) initiative supports the well-being of people impacted by dementia in rural communities. From March 2022 to March 2023, a social return on investment (SROI) analysis was undertaken to assess the value created by the initiative. The analysis revealed that, for every dollar invested in CPCLW, over six dollars in social value was created. These results suggest that investment in multi-sector community-based teams in rural areas generates significant value for multiple stakeholders and that collaborative approaches to well-being maximize social value while positively affecting those impacted by dementia.
