    Nebraska Chapter Advocacy

    Nebraska Chapter Advocacy

    We need Alzheimer's advocates in Nebraska to write emails, attend local policy events, post to social media, and meet with their elected officials. 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.

    Nebraska Advocacy Day


    Join us in Lincoln for Nebraska Advocacy Day on February 20, 2025! Get the latest updates on bills that support people living with dementia and their family caregivers and meet with your state legislators to explain policy changes that can change the future of those impacted by Alzheimer's.

    Working with the Alzheimer's Impact Movement (AIM), a separately incorporated advocacy affiliate, the Alzheimer’s Association and the Nebraska Chapter fight for critical research, prevention and care initiatives at the federal and state levels. From increased research funding to improving Alzheimer’s care and support policies, we aim to advance critical federal and state policy priorities.

    Contact Congress

    Advocates are urging Congress to build upon the past decade of progress by updating and expanding the work of the National Alzheimer's Project Act (NAPA), which has paved the way for our nation to address Alzheimer's and other dementia. Ask Congress to take action.
