Latinos and Alzheimer's
The number of Latinos with Alzheimer's disease
could increase 600 percent by 2050. So it's

care for a loved one.

To provide critical information to the Latino community, our Memory Loss, Dementia and Alzheimer's Disease workshop is available in Spanish. If you or someone you know is affected by Alzheimer's or dementia, take our free online workshop and learn the facts. |
