Welcome!
Volunteers have a significant role in the Alzheimer's Association®- helping us in our efforts to support people with Alzheimer's disease and related memory disorders, their families and those professionals who care for them.
We are the primary support network and information resource for families and caregivers in Northern Virginia, suburban and Southern Maryland and the District of Columbia - and dedicated volunteers like you make this possible!
As we expand services to meet the needs of our community, those with bilingual abilities help us better connect and support the diverse population of the Washington metro area - particularly knowledge in American Sign Language, Spanish, Korean and Vietnamese.
There are many opportunities to serve throughout the year! Our Volunteer Coordinator will help match your interest, abilities and talents with open volunteer positions.
Your time committment is based on your availability - a one-time opportunity or serving on a regular basis.

Volunteer Orientation & Training
A volunteer orientation is required in order to help familiarize participants with the Alzheimer's Association mission, vision and what the Chapter does in our community. Depending on the volunteer position, on-going support and training will be provided.
Program highlights include an overview and history of the Association, an outline of Chapter services and programs and the specific functions of volunteers within each department.
