Annual Advocacy Day a Huge Success
On February 8th Alzheimer's advocates
from across the state convened in Olympia for the Association's
Annual Advocacy Day. This very successful event provided
participants the opportunity to come together and garner support for
our legislative priorities.
The day's activities included a private visit with Governor
Gregoire's Health Policy Advisor and Representative Al O'Brien,
pre-scheduled legislative appointments, attendance at a Senate Ways
& Means hearing, and the dissemination of materials to every senator
and representative.
We would like to extend a special thank you to all of our advocates
for sharing their personal stories and adding a human face to the
issues surrounding Alzheimer's disease.
If you would like to learn more about participating in next year's
Advocacy Day contact Margaux Gillespie at 206.363.5500 or by email
