Darlene Peterson

Darlene was one of the first Board members of HOPE in 2012, before it was called HOPE, and has seen the many changes HOPE has been through over the years, “all for the better”. Darlene was a member of a support group and when her husband passed away with Alzheimer’s in 2011 she felt the need to give back to the group that had taught her so much about dementia. “The group basically saved me from disaster.” Her personal experience and education have enabled her to help those going through the difficulties of caring for someone with dementia.
