Join Alzheimer’s advocates and be heard at the Advocacy Forum
|
|
Even if you’re not coming to Washington, D.C., for the 2017 Alzheimer’s Association Advocacy Forum, you can help the more than 1,200 advocates, caregivers and people living with Alzheimer’s that will flood Capitol Hill on March 29 ask Congress for increased Alzheimer’s research funding. Through Thunderclap and our new video tool, advocates unable to attend the Forum can use social media to amplify our message.

Alzheimer’s researchers say you can take steps to help protect your brain
|
|
Researchers are working to discover ways to not only treat Alzheimer’s but prevent it, including trying to gain a better understanding of the role of amyloid proteins in the development of the disease. Experts say diet, exercise and better sleep, among other steps people can take, may help protect the brain and potentially reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s or another dementia.
