Available online, by phone, and in-person, our education programs feature information on topics including reducing your risk of Alzheimer's, the signs of Alzheimer’s disease, and caregiving issues and techniques.
Education Requests
The Houston & Southeast Texas Chapter believes that knowledge is power. You have multiple opportunities to learn about healthy brain habits, about dementia and caregiver strategies. Find out about resources and support, too.
Find programs in your area at communityresourcefinder.org.
You can also help us expand the reach of Alzheimer's Association resources by hosting a 30 to 60 minute education program. Alternatively, you can increase awareness of the disease and resources by inviting us to make a quick ten-minute presentation at any regularly-scheduled meeting of your employer, faith community, fraternal order, neighborhood association, and so on.
To request any of these, please complete a short form here, bit.ly/alz-ed-request, and a staff person will contact you within two business days regarding your request.
