Empathy in Action: The FTT Way

Discover how 900 people have learned to see dementia—and empathy—through a whole new lens.

900 Strong: How FTT Is Redefining Dementia Live Through Custom, Scalable Experiences

Since launching at the CareFTT Benefit in April 2022, our Dementia Live program has reached an incredible milestone—over 900 individuals trained through more than 50 immersive sessions across the U.S. and abroad, including Southern California, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Idaho, and Amsterdam.

As a licensed Education Partner with AGE-u-cate Training Institute, FTT proudly delivers the nationally recognized Dementia Live program—but we’ve taken it to the next level. Our version of Dementia Live goes beyond the standard format, combining the powerful inside-out experience with custom reflection sessions, audience-specific education, and professional learning materials designed to make the impact last.

Every workshop is tailored to the people in the room—whether first responders, healthcare professionals, caregivers, corporate teams, or students—so participants connect what they experience directly to their real-world roles. We’ve also scaled the model from small four-person workshops to full classrooms and large conference sessions, without losing the intimacy or emotional impact that makes Dementia Live so powerful.

Each session blends immersive simulation with guided discussion, empathy-building exercises, and actionable tools to strengthen communication and understanding. The result is a transformative experience that participants consistently call “eye-opening,” “life-changing,” and “unlike anything else.”

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) affirms what we see every day: “Hands-on, experiential learning enhances engagement, empathy, and long-term retention far more effectively than traditional instruction.”

After more than three years of growth and innovation, one thing is clear: FTT has elevated Dementia Live into a fully customized, scalable learning experience that changes how people understand, connect, and care.
