We’re asking Congress to increase Alzheimer’s and dementia research funding at the National Institutes of Health by an additional $350 million in fiscal year 2020.
Join the Fight
Support the Younger-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease Act to enable individuals living with dementia under the age of 60 to access critical support services through the Older Americans Act.
Take Action
Ask Congress to support the Improving HOPE for Alzheimer’s Act to increase education and outreach to providers about Alzheimer’s and dementia care planning services available through Medicare.
In 2019, Alzheimer's and other dementias will cost the United States $290 billion. We must act quickly to address this national crisis.
Help make Alzheimer’s a national priority.
Become an Advocate
Alzheimer's disease is one of the most critical public health issues in America, which is why we are unrelentingly advocating for change.
Tell us the advocacy activities that interest you most, and we'll contact you with opportunities to move the cause forward.
There are simple actions you can take to help influence national policy and create widespread awareness of this devastating disease.
Learn how the advocacy arm of the Alzheimer's Association develops policies to overcome Alzheimer's disease.
The Association fights for critical research, prevention and care initiatives at the federal, state and local levels.
Alzheimer’s is the only leading cause of death in the United States that cannot be prevented, cured or even slowed. The only way to change this is through research.
We need policies that provide better health and long-term coverage to ensure high-quality, cost-effective care for the millions who are facing this disease.
We work to implement policies that provide support for all those living with Alzheimer's and their caregivers.
Our advocates, together with the Association and AIM, are responsible for historic public policy victories.
