Oklahoma Advocacy Day
On February 9, 2026, nearly 40 advocates came together to make their voices heard and raise awareness for Oklahomans impacted by Alzheimer’s. We heard from state lawmakers, including Representative Brian Hill, Representative Nicole Miller, and Senator Mark Mann, and received exciting updates on the latest Alzheimer’s research happening right here in Oklahoma from the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation.Oklahoma public health data

Oklahoma policy priorities
Working with the Alzheimer's Impact Movement (AIM), a separately incorporated advocacy affiliate, the Alzheimer’s Association and the Oklahoma 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.Learn about Oklahoma policy priorities.
Advocacy volunteering
By advocating on behalf of those living with Alzheimer's and dementia and their families, the Oklahoma Chapter advocates help pass critical legislation in Congress, increase federal research funding and support state initiatives. Explore advocacy volunteer opportunities.Contact Congress
Advocates are urging Congress to sign the ASAP Act. Simple blood tests can detect Alzheimer’s before symptoms appear – but a legal barrier prevents Medicare from covering them. This is our “mammogram moment.” Just as routine screening transformed breast cancer outcomes, the bipartisan ASAP Act will make early detection the standard for Alzheimer’s.Your story can move Congress. Contact your members and share why early detection matters.
