The Alzheimer’s Association is continuing our national effort to raise awareness and concern about Alzheimer's and move people to take action in the fight against the disease. The goal is to enlist 5 million Champions – at least one for each person living with Alzheimer’s in the United States. There is a campaign-specific Web site at http://www.actionalz.org/.
