The Alzheimer’s Association can help you get the information you need about memory loss and dementia.
COVID-19 Update: In the best interest of our constituents, volunteers and staff, we are not offering in-person education programs at this time. Instead, we are offering dial-in and virtual conferencing options. Please email helplinegmc@alz.org or call us 24/7 at 800.272.3900 with questions.
Our education programs are designed to provide caregivers, families, health professionals and the general community with valuable information about Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. Education programs are scheduled regularly and offer information on warning signs, understanding the diagnosis, changes in the brain, caregiving issues, home safety, financial and legal planning, and more.
