The Greater New Jersey Chapter was first incorporated in 1985 as the Northern New Jersey Chapter. Like most of the Alzheimer's Association affiliated chapters across the country, ours was founded by a small group of Alzheimer's disease family members who had come together to support one another and raise awareness and concern on behalf of Alzheimer's disease individuals and families. In 2000, the Chapter merged with the then former Central New Jersey Chapter and the organization was renamed the Greater New Jersey Chapter. The service area was expanded to include the majority of the state's counties and population base -- Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex, Morris, Monmouth, Ocean, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union, and Warren. We serve these communities through four office locations, and with the dedication of many volunteers and our highly skilled professional staff.
