Get the emotional support you need
The Alzheimer's Association is deeply concerned with providing support to those who are caring for persons with dementia. Our mission is to help caregivers take care of themselves as well as provide a quality life for the person with Alzheimer's disease or dementia.
Join us in a caring and understanding environment where you can ask questions and get straight answers from people who have been there. Learn creative and caring problem-solving techniques, get informed about helpful resources, and hear about advances in research and advocacy. Discover you are not alone in the way you feel! You may find that you can help others who are experiencing where you've already been. Remember, laughter, taking care of yourself, and planning for the future are essential to well-being.
We have many support groups, at various times and locations. For more information, contact us at 608.232.3400 or 1.800.272.3900.
Connect with others online
The Alzheimer’s Association message boards and chat rooms provide a virtual online community for persons with Alzheimer's, caregivers and care providers. Our message boards have thousands of registered members from around the United States and thousands more who refer to the stories and information that is available 24 hours a day.
