Alzheimer's is a journey, not a destination. As someone living with Alzheimer’s or dementia, or as someone who is a caregiver, taking an active role to learn more about how your life may be impacted by these circumstances can help you navigate the steps of your personal journey.
 
Our free education programs feature information on topics including the signs of Alzheimer's disease, diagnosis, communication, living with Alzheimer's and caregiving techniques and are available to you in various formats:

  • Attend an education program in-person in your local community – find them via our Community Resource Finder, our current Program Catalog, or call 800.272.3900.
  • Engage in online programs live via Zoom 
  • Access on-demand Alzheimer’s and dementia education programs online at alz.org/education.
