Donate NowDistrict of Columbia Advocacy
Advocates in the District of Columbia write emails, attend local policy events, post to social media, and meet with their elected officials in the District and on Capitol Hill. 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.
