Who We Are

Vision: A world without Alzheimer's and all other dementia. Mission: The Alzheimer's Association leads the way to end Alzheimer's and all other dementia - by accelerating global research, driving risk reduction and early detection, and maximizing quality care and support.

What We Do

Annual Walk Event: Our flagship event brings together participants of all ages and abilities to honor those affected by Alzheimer’s and raise funds for ongoing support and research. Volunteer Engagement: Volunteers are vital to our success. They help with planning, event logistics, team recruitment, fundraising support, and day-of coordination. Community Education: We offer free workshops, webinars, and resources on topics such as warning signs, communication strategies, and caregiving support. Advocacy and Awareness: We empower advocates to influence public policy and increase awareness at the local, state, and national levels. Support Services: Through the Alzheimer’s Association, we provide a 24/7 Helpline, online tools, and local support groups to help families navigate the challenges of dementia.
