    Missouri Chapter Advocacy

    Missouri Chapter Advocacy

    Advocates in Missouri write emails, attend local policy events, post to social media, and meet with their elected officials across Missouri and Washington, D.C. They take action to urge lawmakers to pass bipartisan legislation that helps families living with Alzheimer’s and other dementia and to ask for more research funding to end this disease — once and for all.

    Become an advocate and help advance public policies that continue to make Alzheimer’s a local and national priority.

    Missouri Memory Day

    Each year, the Alzheimer’s Association Missouri Chapter hosts a State Advocacy Day, empowering volunteers from across the state to advocate for public policies that improve the lives of those affected by Alzheimer’s and all other dementia. Stay tuned for more information about the 2027 Missouri Memory Day.
