HB 2674 Washington House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Concerning department of health information on dementia.

HB 2674 requires Washington's Department of Health to include dementia risk reduction and diagnosis information in public health campaigns and materials when research links the campaign topic to dementia prevention (e.g., exercise, nutrition). It mandates that updated materials be available in all languages currently used by the department and that the department consult dementia experts when developing this content. The bill directly affects the Department of Health’s public outreach and provider education efforts, aiming to support at-risk populations - including marginalized communities disproportionately impacted by dementia - through accessible, evidence-based information. This policy change integrates existing dementia prevention research into current health communications without creating new programs or funding.
