We need your help

Join the cause

As Alzheimer's disease threatens to bankrupt families, businesses and our healthcare system, scientists are coming closer to finding better treatments that could drastically alter the course of the disease. Now is the time to join us and speak up for the needs and rights of people with Alzheimer's and their families, and help persuade Congress to address those needs through legislative action.

 

As an advocate, you will:

Generate action from our elected officials by making calls and writing letters.

Stay on top of policy and legislative issues through alerts and updates.

Help elevate Alzheimer's from a disease to a cause.
