The Alzheimer's Association Greater Richmond Chapter was established in 1981 with the organization of a single family support group and became a Chapter of the National Alzheimer's Association in 1983. On July 1, 2016, the Greater Richmond Chapter merged with the operations of the national Alzheimer's Association organization. The work and mission of our Chapter will remain the same — to eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health.
