Currently, more than 95,000 South Carolinians are living with Alzheimer’s disease, and over 199,000 family members and friends are providing care for them. Our chapter is here to help, serving the entire state through a network of regional offices. We provide education and support to those facing Alzheimer’s and other dementias throughout our community, including those living with the disease, caregivers, health care professionals and families. We are also committed to advocating for the needs and rights of those facing Alzheimer’s disease and advancing critical research toward methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure. Take steps to advance the cause by joining us this fall for a Walk to End Alzheimer's event in Aiken, Anderson, Bluffton, Charleston, Columbia, Greenville, Myrtle Beach, Rock Hill or Spartanburg.
