When the doctor delivers the news that your family is facing life with Alzheimer’s disease, there is hope. After nearly three decades of existence, the Alzheimer’s Association has become a key place for caregivers, families and the community to turn to for information, advice, education and encouragement about what to expect, where to go, and how to care for an individual with Alzheimer’s disease or a related disorder. It has been a pillar of strength for the community.
