Alzheimer's in South Carolina

Here in South Carolina, we are fortunate to have the nation’s most comprehensive statewide registry of residents diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias! 

The SC Alzheimer's Disease Registry is maintained by the Arnold School of Public Health at the University of South Carolina. In partnership with the Registry, the Alzheimer's Association SC Chapter has produced county fact sheets to shed light on the impact of dementia on our local communities.
