Advocate

Did you know that every 71 seconds, someone in America develops Alzheimer Disease?

We need your help as an advocate for Alzheimer's families - our federal and state legislators do listen to us! The more advocates who contact them - the more they will listen. Alzheimer's advocates can improve access to community-based care, improve quality in nursing homes and other residential settings and expand funding for public programs serving people with dementia.
