 Your voice can make a difference.
- Take Action Now!
Advocacy is a major component of the Alzheimer's Association
mission. Advocates are people with Alzheimer's and related
disorders, caregivers, friends and families whose voices together
are a powerful tool for change and hope of a future without
Alzheimer's.
Alzheimer advocates are calling for advancements in research and
enhanced care and support at the federal, state and local levels.
This "grassroots" effort is paying off with: substantial increases
in federal research funding, growth in state-supported services, and
improvements in the quality of care for those in nursing homes and
other residential settings.
Our key public policy issues are
research, Medicare, Medicaid, long-term care, and family support.
You can make a difference in our
battle against Alzheimer's disease and we invite you to become an
advocate. Become an advocate for the thousands who are living with
Alzheimer's disease and their caregivers and communities, by
registering on-line now or by calling the chapter office at
800-848-7097. |
