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.

Ways you can help as an Advocate:

  • Write your legislator about priority legislation
  • Volunteer at one of our events
  • Attend our Annual Advocacy Day in Albany
  • Recruit new Alzheimer's Advocates
