Learn the difference between these diseases.

Alzheimer's disease is not a normal part of aging. Join us to learn about the impact of Alzheimer's; the difference between Alzheimer's and dementia; stages and risk factors; current research and treatments available for some symptoms; and Alzheimer's Association resources.

The Alzheimer's Association is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer's care, support and research. Their mission is to eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health. Their vision is a world without Alzheimer's®. The Alzheimer’s Association provides local support and programs to families facing this devastating disease, including free educational programs, support groups and a 24/7 Helpline staffed by master’s level clinicians who can help families navigate a variety of disease-related issues.
